Description
A count of frames received on a particular
MLT that are not an integral number of
octets in length and do not pass the FCS
check. The count represented by an
instance of this object is incremented
when the alignmentError status is returned
by the MAC service to the LLC (or
other MAC user). Received frames for
which multiple error conditions occur are,
according to the conventions of IEEE 802.3
Layer Management, counted exclusively
according to the error status presented to
the LLC.
