– 408 –
Multicast Input 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.
Multicast Output 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.
Broadcast Input 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.
Broadcast Output 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.
Etherlike Statistics
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.
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.
Deferred Transmissions A count of frames for which the first transmission attempt on a
particular interface is delayed because the medium was busy.
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.
Internal MAC Transmit
Errors
A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails
due to an internal MAC sublayer transmit error.
Frames Too Long A count of frames received on a particular interface that exceed the
maximum permitted frame size.
Symbol Errors For an interface operating at 100 Mb/s, the number of times there was
an invalid data symbol when a valid carrier was present.
For an interface operating in half-duplex mode at 1000 Mb/s, the
number of times the receiving media is non-idle (a carrier event) for a
period of time equal to or greater than slotTime, and during which
there was at least one occurrence of an event that causes the PHY to
indicate
'Data reception error' or 'carrier extend error' on the GMII.
For an interface operating in full-duplex mode at 1000 Mb/s, the
number of times the receiving media is non-idle (a carrier event) for a
period of time equal to or greater than minFrameSize, and during
which there was at least one occurrence of an event that causes the
PHY to indicate 'Data reception error' on the GMII
Pause Frames Input Count of pause frames received on the interface
Pause Frames Output Count of pause frames transmitted from the interface.
RMON Statistics
Octets Total number of octets of data received on the network. This statistic
can be used as a reasonable indication of Ethernet utilization.
