In Errors Packets received by the device interface that contained
errors that prevented them from being delivered to a
higher-layer protocol.
In Unknown Packets received by the device interface that were
discarded because of an unknown or unsupported
protocol.
Out Octets Octets transmitted by the interface, including framing
characters.
Out Packets Packets transmitted, at the request of a higher level
protocol, by the device interface to a subnetwork address
(both unicast and non-unicast).
Out Discards Outbound packets that were discarded by the device
interface even though no errors were detected that
would prevent them from being transmitted. A possible
reason for discard would be to free up buffer space in the
device.
Out Errors Outbound packets that could not be transmitted by the
device interface because they contained errors.
Load
The number of bytes processed by the indicated interface during the last poll
interval in comparison to the theoretical maximum load for that interface type
(10 Mbps for standard Ethernet; 100 Mbps for Fast Ethernet). Load is further
deÞned by the following parameters:
In Octets The number of bytes received by this interface, expressed
as a percentage of the theoretical maximum load.
Out Octets The number of bytes transmitted by this interface,
expressed as a percentage of the theoretical maximum
load.
When you select this option, a Bar Graph Þeld will be added to the interface
display area; this Þeld is only available when Load is the selected base unit.
Rate
The count for the selected statistic during the last poll interval. The available
parameters are the same as those provided for Raw Counts. Refer to the Raw
Counts section, above, for a complete description of each parameter.
