Port Statistics: Port See the Port to which the current display applies.

InNonUnicast See the total number of frames that have been received that
were delivered to a broadcast or multicast address.

the switch was being overutilized.

discarded because they contained errors. This field
represents the total number of errored frames, regardless of
