Interface (Read-Only)
This field displays the interface number for which statistics are currently

Section 5.19.1.

framing characters.

received that were sent to a single address.

were delivered to a broadcast or multicast address.
InDiscards (Read-Only)

discarded because they contained errors. This field represents the total
number of errored frames, regardless of the cause of the error.
