The following table describes the significant fields displayed.
Field Description
Dropped Total number of events in which packets were dropped by the
probe due to lack of resources. Note that this number is not
necessarily the number of packets dropped. It is the number of
times this condition was detected.
Octets Total number of octets of data (including those in bad packets)
received on the network (excluding framing bits but including
FCS octets).
Packets Total number of packets (including bad packets, broadcast
packets, and multicast packets) received.
Broadcast Total number of good packets received and directed to the
broadcast address. This does not include multicast packets.
Multicast Total number of good packets received and directed to a
multicast address. This number does not include packets
directed to the broadcast address.
CRC Align Errors Total number of packets received with a length (excluding
framing bits, but including FCS octets) of between 64 and
1518 octets, inclusive, but with either a bad Frame Check
Sequence (FCS) with an integral number of octets (FCS
Error) or a bad FCS with a non-integral number of octets
(Alignment Error).
Collisions Best estimate of the total number of collisions on this Ethernet
segment.
Undersize Pkts Total number of packets received, less than 64 octets long
(excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets) and
otherwise well formed.
Oversize Pkts Total number of packets received, longer than 1518 octets
(excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets) and
otherwise well formed.
Fragments Total number of packets received, less than 64 octets in length
(excluding framing bits but including FCS octets) and either a
bad Frame Check Sequence (FCS) with an integral number of
octets (FCS Error) or a bad FCS with a non-integral number
of octets (Alignment Error).
