Description
Count of valid frames received which were
discarded (that is, filtered) by the forwarding
process.
The total number of Forwarding Database entries,
which have been or would have been learned, but
have been discarded due to a lack of space to
store them in the Forwarding Database.
If this counter is increasing, it indicates that the
Forwarding Database is regularly becoming full (a
condition which has adverse performance effects
on the subnetwork).
If this counter has a significant value but is not
presently increasing, it indicates that the problem
has been occurring but is not persistent.
The number of frames discarded by this port due
to excessive transit delay through the bridge. It is
incremented by both transparent and source route
bridges.
The number of frames discarded by this port due
to an excessive size. It is incremented by both
transparent and source route bridges.
The number of times this port has transitioned
from the Learning state to the Forwarding state.
