Graph Interface tab fields


Field Description
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 not sent.
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 because of 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.

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 will always be 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 times the port went in and out of service; the number of state transitions from up to down.
