Table 9: Parameters displayed in the output of the SHOW IP COUNTER=INTERFACE
command.
Parameter Meaning
Interface The name of the interface (e.g. ETH0, PPP0, FR0), or
“LOCAL” for the local IP interface. If multihoming is
enabled (two or more logical interfaces have been assigned
to a single layer 2 interface), all interface names will include
a hyphen (“-”) and the logical interface number.
Type The type of interface; one of “Static”, “Dynamic” or
“Inactive”. A static interface is a permanent interface that
is active and in use. A dynamic interface is a non-permanent
interface created by Asynchronous Call Control (ACC)
when a dial-in user initiates a SLIP or PPP connection. The
interface will disappear when the user logs off, when the
router is restarted or when the IP module is reset with the
RESET IP command. An inactive interface is a permanent
interface that could not attach to the lower-layer (FR, PPP,
ETH, etc) interface for some reason. The interface is not in
use but remains configured and will become active if the
lower-layer attachment succeeds on the next RESET IP or
restart. The most common cause of inactive interfaces is the
deletion of the lower-layer interface. Inactive interfaces may
be deleted by the manager, but can not be modified.
ifInPkts The number of packets received via the interface.
ifOutPkts The number of packets transmitted via the interface.
ifInBcastPkts The number of multicast packets received via the interface.
ifOutBcastPkts The number of multicast packets transmitted via the
interface.
ifInUcastPkts The number of unicast packets received via the interface.
ifOutUcastPkts The number of unicast packets transmitted via the
interface.
ifInDiscards The number of packets received via the interface that were
discarded.
ifOutDiscards The number of packets to be transmitted via the interface
that were discarded.
