Field Description
SampleIndex Indicates the sample number. As history samples are taken,
they are assigned greater sample numbers.
Utilization Estimates the percentage of link capacity used during the
sampling interval.
Octets The number of octets received on the link during the sampling
period.
Pkts The number of packets received on the link during the sampling
period.
BroadcastPk
ts
The number of packets received on the link during the sampling
interval that are destined for the packet address.
MulticastPkt
s
The number of packets received on the link during the sampling
interval that are destined for the multicast address. This doe
not include the broadcast packets.
DropEvents The number of received packets dropped due to system
resource constraints.
CRCAlignErr
ors
The number of packets received during a sampling interval that
were between 64 and 1518 octets long that had a bad FCS with
either an integral number of octets (FCS Error) or a non-integral
number of octets (Alignment Error). The packet length includes
Frame Check Sequence (FCS) octets but not framing bits.
