Term Definition
Packets Total Packets Transmitted (Octets) - The total number of octets of data (including those in bad
Transmitted Octets packets) received on the network (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets). This object can
be used as a reasonable estimate of Ethernet utilization. If greater precision is desired, the
etherStatsPkts and etherStatsOctets objects should be sampled before and after a common interval.
-----
Packets Transmitted 64 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets) received that
were 64 octets in length (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).
Packets Transmitted 65-127 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 65 and 127 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but
including FCS octets).
Packets Transmitted 128-255 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 128 and 255 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but
including FCS octets).
Packets Transmitted 256-511 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 256 and 511 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but
including FCS octets).
Packets Transmitted 512-1023 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 512 and 1023 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but
including FCS octets).
Packets Transmitted 1024-1518 Octets - The total number of packets (including bad packets)
received that were between 1024 and 1518 octets in length inclusive (excluding framing bits but
including FCS octets).
Packets Transmitted > 1518 Octets - The total number of packets transmitted that were longer
than 1518 octets (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets) and were otherwise well formed.
Max Frame Size - The maximum size of the Info (non-MAC) field that this port will receive or
transmit.
Packets Total Packets Transmitted Successfully- The number of frames that have been transmitted by
Transmitted this port to its segment.
Successfully
Unicast Packets Transmitted - The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested
be transmitted to a subnetwork-unicast address, including those that were discarded or not sent.
Multicast Packets Transmitted - The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested
be transmitted to a Multicast address, including those that were discarded or not sent.
Broadcast Packets Transmitted - The total number of packets that higher-level protocols
requested be transmitted to the Broadcast address, including those that were discarded or not sent.
Transmit Packets The number of outbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had
Discarded been detected to prevent their being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol. A possible reason for
discarding a packet could be to free up buffer space.
Transmit Errors Total Transmit Errors - The sum of Single, Multiple, and Excessive Collisions.
FCS Errors - The total number of packets transmitted that had a length (excluding framing bits, but
including FCS octets) of between 64 and 1518 octets, inclusive, but had a bad Frame Check
Sequence (FCS) with an integral number of octets.
Underrun Errors - The total number of frames discarded because the transmit FIFO buffer became
empty during frame transmission.
