Description of Interface Statistics
The following statistics are displayed for the Ethernet interface only, either of the wireless interfaces only, or for all
interfaces:
• Admin Status (Ethernet/Wireless-Slot A/B): The desired state of the interface: Up (ready to pass packets), Down (not
ready to pass packets, or Testing (testing and unable to pass packets).
• Alignment Error (Ethernet): The number of frames received that are not an integral number of octets in length and do
not pass the Frame Check Sequence check.
• Carrier Sense Errors (Ethernet): The number of times that the carrier sense condition was lost or never asserted
when attempting to transmit a frame. The count increments at most once per transmission attempt.
• Deferred Transmission (Ethernet): The number of frames for which the first transmission attempt is delayed because
the medium is busy.This number does not include frames involved in collisions.
• Description (Ethernet/Wireless-Slot A/B): Information about the interface (e.g., the name of the manufacturer, the
product name and the version of the hardware interface).
• Duplicate Frame Count (Wireless-Slot A/B): The number of duplicate frames received.
