The following definitions explain each field of the Interface Statistics
screen:
Interface (Read-Only)
This field displays the Interface number for which statistics are currently
being displayed. Figure 5-31 shows the Interface field displaying 1. This
represents the 10 Mbps interface of CONN 1. To view other interface
statistics, refer to Section 5.24.1.
Name (Read-Only)
The Name field displays the type of interface for which statistics are
being displayed.

This field displays the total number of octets (bytes) that have been
received on the Interface. This includes all octets including bad frames
and framing characters.
InUnicast (Read-Only)
The InUnicast field displays the total number of frames that have been
received that were sent to a single address.
InNonUnicast (Read-Only)
This field displays the total number of frames that have been received that
were delivered to a broadcast or multicast address.
InDiscards (Read-Only)
The InDiscards field displays the total number of inbound frames that
were discarded, even though the frames contained no errors. This field
may increment because it was in an initialization phase and not ready to
forward frames, the switch needed to free up buffer space, or the switch
was being overutilized.
InErrors (Read-Only)
This field displays the total number of inbound frames that have been
discarded because they contained errors. This field represents the total
number of errored frames, regardless of the cause of the error.
InUnknownProtos (Read-Only)
