SPEEDLAN TM
70
Bridge in discards - The count of valid frames that have been received which were discarded (i.e., filtered)
by the forwarding process.
Bridge out packets - The number of frames that have been transmitted by this port to its segment. Note
that a frame transmitted on the interface corresponding to this port is not counted by this object unless it is for
a protocol being processed by the local bridging function.
In errors - The number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them from being deliverable to a
higher-layer protocol.
In discards - The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even though they were
deliverable. One possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space.
In Alignment Errors - A count of frames received on a particular interface that are not an integral
number of octets in length and do not pass the FCS check.
In 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.
Out Errors - The number of outbound packets that could not be transmitted because of errors.
Out Carrier Sense Errors - The number of times that the carrier-sense condition was lost or never asserted
when the SPEEDLAN attempted to transmit a frame on a particular interface.
Out Collisions - A count of successfully transmitted frames on a particular interface for which transmis-
sion is inhibited by exactly one or more collisions, plus the number of times that a collision is detected on a
particular interface later than 512 bit-times into the transmission of a packet.
