Description
UcastPkts—IfHCOut
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested to be
transmitted, and which were not addressed to a multicast or broadcast address at
this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent.
BroadcastPkts—IfHCOut
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested to be
transmitted, and which were addressed to a broadcast address at this sublayer,
including those that were discarded or not sent. This object is a 64-bit version of
ifOutBroadcastPkts.
MulticastPkts—IfHCOut
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested to be
transmitted, and which were addressed to a multicast address at this sublayer,
including those that were discarded or not sent.
For a MAC layer protocol, this includes both group and functional addresses. This
object is a 64-bit version of ifOutMulticastPkts.
Discards—IfHCOut
The number of outbound packets that 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.
Errors—IfHCOut
For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of outbound packets that could not be
transmitted because of errors.
For character-oriented or fixed-length interfaces, the number of outbound
transmission units that could not be transmitted because of errors.
Internet Protocol (IP) statistics
Use the following command to display the interface protocol statistics of the selected port:

Command mode:
All
GEA IP statistics for port 1:
ipInReceives : 0
ipInHeaderError: 0
ipInDiscards : 0
The following table describes the Internet Protocol (IP) statistics for a selected port:
Table 49 IP statistics for port
Statistics
Description
ipInReceives
The total number of input datagrams received from interfaces, including those received in
error.
ipInHeaderError
The number of input datagrams discarded because the IP address in their IP header's
destination field was not a valid address to be received at this entity (the switch).
ipInDiscards
The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to prevent their
continued processing, but which were discarded (for example, for lack of buffer space). Note
that this counter does not include any datagrams discarded while awaiting re-assembly.
