Table 5-7 Interface Statistics for Port (/stats/port/if)
Statistics Description
ifInOctets The total number of octets received on the interface, including framing
characters.
ifInUcastPkts The number of packets, delivered by this sub-layer to a higher sub- layer,
which were not addressed to a multicast or broadcast address at this sub-
layer.
ifInBroadcastPkts The number of packets, delivered by this sub-layer to a higher sub- layer,
which were addressed to a broadcast address at this sub-layer.
ifInMulticastPkts The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested to be
transmitted, and which were addressed to a multicast address at this sub-
layer, including those that were discarded or not sent. For a MAC layer
protocol, this includes both Group and Functional addresses.
ifInDiscards The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even
though no errors had been detected to prevent their being delivered to a
higher-layer protocol. One possible reason for discarding such a packet
could be to free up buffer space.
ifInErrors For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of inbound packets that con-
tained errors preventing them from being delivered to a higher-layer pro-
tocol. For character-oriented or fixed-length interfaces, the number of
inbound transmission units that contained errors preventing them from
being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol.
