4.5.6.1 Ethernet
General Interface Details
 MTU: The size of the largest packet which can be sent/received on the
interface, specified in octets.
 Speed: The speed of the interface in bits per second.
 BTS MAC Address: The MAC address of the interface.
 Operational Status: The current operational state of the interface
(Up/Down/Testing). The Testing state indicates that no operational packets
can be passed.
Ethernet Interface Counters:
 Received Bytes: The number of octets in valid MAC frames received on this
interface, including the MAC header and FCS.
 Received Unicast Packets: The number of packets received on this interface,
which were not addressed to a multicast or broadcast address.
 Received And Discarded Packets: The number of received packets which were
chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent
their being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol. One possible reason for
discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space.
 Received Multicast Packets: The number of packets received on this interface,
which were addressed to a multicast address.
 Received Broadcast Packets: The number of packets received on this interface,
which were addressed to the broadcast address.
 Transmitted Bytes: The number of octets transmitted in MAC frames on this
interface, including the MAC header and FCS.
