The Interface tab in the graphPort dialog box displays packet and other statistics for the selected port(s).
To open the Interface tab:

The table below describes the Interface tab statistics fields.
InOctets
The total number of octets received on the interface, including framing characters.
OutOctets
The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface, including framing characters.
InUcastPkts
The number of packets delivered by this sublayer to a higher sublayer that were not addressed to a multicast or broadcast address at this sublayer.
OutUcastPkts
The number of packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted that were not addressed to a multicast address at this sublayer.This total number includes those packets discarded or unsent.
InMulticastPkts
The number of packets delivered by this sublayer to a higher sublayer that were addressed to a multicast address at this sublayer. For a MAC layer protocol, this number includes both Group and Functional addresses.
OutMulticastPkts
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted, and that were addressed to a multicast address at this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent. For a MAC layer protocol, this number includes both Group and Functional addresses.
InBroadcastPkts
The number of packets delivered by this sublayer to a higher sublayer that were addressed to a broadcast address at this sublayer.
OutBroadcastPkts
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted, and that were addressed to a broadcast address at this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent.
InDiscards
The number of inbound packets that were discarded due to frames with errors or invalid frames or, in some cases, to fill up buffer space.
InErrors
For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them from being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol. 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. For ports with large frame enabled, the number of ingressing oversized frames larger than 1518 bytes
(10/100 MB ports) or 1535 bytes (Gigabit Ethernet ports).
InUnknownProtos
For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of packets received via the interface that were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol. For character-oriented or fixed-length interfaces that support protocol multiplexing, the number of transmission units received via the interface that were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol. For any interface that does not support protocol multiplexing, this counter is always 0.
InFlowCtrlPkts
The total number of flow control packets received by this interface.
OutFlowCtrlPkts
The total number of flow control packets transmitted by this interface.
NumStateTransition
The number of state transitions.
