Transmitted Discarded Packets
The number of outbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had
been detected to prevent their being transmitted. One possible reason for discarding such a packet
could be to free up buffer space.
Received Multicast Packets
The number of packets, delivered by this sub-layer to a higher sub-layer, which were addressed to a
multicast address at this sub-layer.
Transmitted Multicast Packets
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted, and which were
addressed to a multicast address at this sub-layer, including those that were discarded or not sent.
Received Broadcast Packets
The number of packets, delivered by this sub-layer to a higher sub-layer, which were addressed to a
broadcast address at this sub-layer.
Transmitted Broadcast Packets
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted, and which were
addressed to a broadcast address at this sub-layer, including those that were discarded or not sent.
Received Unknown Packets
The number of packets received via the interface which were discarded because of an unknown or
unsupported protocol.
Etherlike Statistics
Single Collision Frames
The number of successfully transmitted frames for which transmission is inhibited by exactly one
collision.
Multiple Collision Frames
A count of successfully transmitted frames for which transmission is inhibited by more than one
collision.
Late Collisions
The number of times that a collision is detected later than 512 bit-times into the transmission of a
packet.
Excessive Collisions
A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails due to excessive collisions.
This counter does not increment when the interface is operating in full-duplex mode.
Deferred Transmissions
A count of frames for which the first transmission attempt on a particular interface is delayed
because the medium was busy.
Frames Too Long
A count of frames received on a particular interface that exceed the maximum permitted frame
size.
Alignment Errors
The number of alignment errors (mis-synchronized data packets).
FCS Errors
A count of frames received on a particular interface that are an integral number of octets in length
but do not pass the FCS check. This count does not include frames received with frame-too-long or
frame-too- short error.
SQE Test Errors
A count of times that the SQE TEST ERROR message is generated by the PLS sublayer for a
particular interface.
Carrier Sense Errors
The number of times that the carrier sense condition was lost or never asserted when attempting
to transmit a frame.
Internal MAC Receive Errors
A count of frames for which reception on a particular interface fails due to an internal MAC
sublayer receive error.
Internal MAC Transmit Errors
A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails due to an internal MAC
sublayer transmit error.
RMON Statistics
Drop Events
The total number of events in which packets were dropped due to lack of resources.
Jabbers
The total number of frames received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits,
but including FCS octets), and had either an FCS or alignment error.
Fragments
The total number of frames received that were less than 64 octets in length (excluding framing
bits, but including FCS octets) and had either an FCS or alignment error.
Collisions
The best estimate of the total number of collisions on this Ethernet segment.
Received Octets
Total number of octets of data received on the network. This statistic can be used as a reasonable
indication of Ethernet utilization.
Received Packets
The total number of packets (bad, broadcast and multicast) received.
Broadcast Packets
The total number of good packets received that were directed to the broadcast address. Note that
this does not include multicast packets.
Multicast Packets
The total number of good packets received that were directed to this multicast address.
Undersize Packets
The total number of packets received that were less than 64 octets long (excluding framing bits,
but including FCS octets) and were otherwise well formed.
Oversize Packets
The total number of packets received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits,
but including FCS octets) and were otherwise well formed.
64 Bytes Packets
The total number of packets (including bad packets) received and transmitted that were 64 octets
in length (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).
