NOTE Some of the parameter descriptions vary according to whether the
adapter card is operating at 100Mbps or 10Mbps speed. Most also apply
to an HP-PB 100VG-AnyLAN card operating in 10Base-T mode.
This command displays statistics about data transmitted and received
across the link. Many field values are summations. Over time, the
values in these fields reach their maximum possible value. When this
occurs, these fields can only be reset manually.
Transmit bytes — Total number of bytes successfully transmitted
onto the medium. This includes unicast, broadcast, and multicast
frames that were successfully transmitted on the first attempt, as well
as frames that were successfully transmitted after being deferred or
that experienced one or more collisions. The maximum printable value
of this 64-bit field is 17 digits, or about 99 million Gbytes. In the
previous example, 10.1 million bytes were transmitted, or about
9.7 Mbytes.
Transmits — Total number of frames successfully transmitted onto
the medium at normal priority. This includes unicast, broadcast, and
multicast frames that were successfully transmitted on the first
attempt, as well as frames that were successfully transmitted after
being deferred or that experienced one or more collisions. The byte
count given by Transmit bytes is distributed over this number of
