Input Packets Error Displays the number of packets with errors at the interface. Input Packet Errors are input errors occurring due to: no
buffer space/ignored packets due to broadcast storms, packets larger than maximum packet size, framing errors,
input rate exceeding the receiver's date handling rate, or cyclic redundancy check errors. In all these cases, an error
is reported.
Output Bytes Displays the number of bytes transmitted from the interface.
Output Unicast Displays the number of unicast packets (packets directed towards a single destination address) transmitted from
Packets the interface.
Output NonUnicast Displays the number of unicast packets transmitted from the interface.
Packets
Output Total Packets Displays the total number of packets transmitted from the interface.
Output Packets Displays the number of transmitted packets dropped at the interface. Output Packets Dropped are packets dropped
Dropped when the output queue of the physical device associated with interface is saturated.
Output Packets Error Displays the number of transmitted packets with errors. Output Packet Errors are the sum of all the output packet
errors, malformed packets, and misaligned packets received on an interface.
