command .
Parameters Meaning
Packet DMA Counters
Receive
Counters for packets received.
Octets The number of octets received by the CPU from the switch chip.
Packets The number of packets received by the CPU from the switch chip.
Discards The number of packets received from the switch chip that were
discarded because either the receive queue was too long, or
because the free buffers in the router were below BufferLevel3, or
because there were no data bytes in the packet.
TooFewBuffers The number of packets received from the switch chip that were
discarded because the free buffers in the router were below
BufferLevel3.
NonOctetAlignedFrames The number of received frames with alignment and CRC errors.
FIFOOverruns The number of times reception of a packet failed because of a
FIFO overrun.
rameTooLongs The number of received packets that exceeded the maximum
permitted frame size.
FrameTooShorts The number of received packets that their lengths were less than
the minimum permitted frame size.
CRCErrors The number of received frames with CRC but not alignment
errors.
QueueLength The number of packets received from the switch chip waiting to
be processed by the CPU.
Transmit
Counters for packets transmitted.
Octets The number of octets transferred from the CPU to the switch
chip, including framing.
Packets The number of packets transferred from the CPU to the switch
chip.
Discards The number of packets waiting for transmission that were
discarded when the DMA process was reset due to an error.
Aborts The number of times the transmission of a packet was aborted
due to it taking excessive time for the transmission to complete.
DescriptorAreaFilleds The number of times the transmit descriptors are filled due to a
high rate of transfer of packets from the CPU to the switch chip.
FIFOUnderruns The number of times transmission of a packet failed because of a
FIFO underrun.
QueueLength The number of packets currently queued for transmission, or that
have been transmitted and are waiting to be purged from the
transmit queue.
General Counters
Resets The number of times the switch chip has been reset due to a
router configuration change.
