Line Description
Input Statistics: Displays all the input statistics including:
• Number of packets and bytes into the interface
• Number of packets with IP headers and VLAN tagged headers.
NOTE: The sum of the number of packets may not be as expected
since a VLAN tagged IP packet counts as both a VLAN packet and an
IP packet.
• Packet size and the number of those packets inbound to the interface
• Number of symbol errors, runts, giants, and throttles packets:
• symbol errors = number packets containing bad data. That is, the port MAC
detected a physical coding error in the packet.
• runts = number of packets that are less than 64B
• giants = packets that are greater than the MTU size
• throttles = packets containing PAUSE frames
• Number of CRC, IP Checksum, overrun, and discarded packets:
• CRC = packets with CRC/FCS errors
• IP Checksum = packets with IP Checksum errors
• overrun = number of packets discarded due to FIFO overrun conditions
• discarded = the sum of runts, giants, CRC, IP Checksum, and overrun packets
discarded without any processing
Output Statistics: Displays output statistics sent out of the interface including:
• Number of packets, bytes, and underruns out of the interface
• packets = total number of packets
• bytes = total number of bytes
• underruns = number of packets with FIFO underrun conditions
• Number of Multicast, Broadcast, and Unicast packets:
• Multicasts = number of MAC multicast packets
• Broadcasts = number of MAC broadcast packets
• Unicasts = number of MAC unicast packets
• Number of throttles and discards packets::
• throttles = packets containing PAUSE frames
• discarded = number of packets discarded without any processing
Rate information... Estimate of the input and output trac rate over a designated interval (30 to 299
seconds). Trac rate is displayed in bits, packets per second, and percent of line rate.
Time since... Elapsed time since the last interface status change (hh:mm:ss format).
Usage Information
The interface counter “over 1023-byte pkts” does not increment for packets in the range 9216 > x <1023.
The Management port is enabled by default (no shutdown). If necessary, use the ip address command to
assign an IP address to the Management port.
