Status: B0=Yes; NoFix
21 MACSec: Tx Octets Protected (LSECTXOCTP)
Increment More Than Required
Problem:
The 82599 is required to count in this statistic the user data only. The counter currently includes bytes
outside the user data (DA, SA, and SECTAG fields).
Implication:
Statistic does not provide the required data. Specification compliance issue.
Workaround:
None. Software can calculate the extra bytes counted in the counter (multiply number of packets by 20
or 28 according to SecTAG length — selected by LSECTXCTRL.AISCI.
Status: B0=Yes; NoFix

64 as required by the Clause 49 specification.
Implication:
Specification compliance of Clause 49. No functional impact.
Workaround:
