Znyx 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface statistics

RECEIVE section statistics  Top

The following table describes the statistics in the RECEIVE section of the ifstat command output when you use the command on a Znyx 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface, such as an X1001, X1001B, X1002, X1003, X1012, or X1012B card.

Statistic

Meaning

Packets

Number of packets received on the interface.

Bytes

Number of bytes received on the interface.

Total errors

Number of errors during Ethernet frame reception, including all kinds of receive errors.

No buffers

Number of received packets dropped due to the unavailability of buffers.

Length errors

Number of frames truncated due to the shortage of receive descriptors.

Runt frames

Number of runt frames.

Long frames

Number of frames received that exceeded the maximum Ethernet-specified size of 1,518 bytes.

CRC errors

Number of CRC errors that occurred on the received frames.

H/w overflow

Number of frames discarded because of receive FIFO overflow.

List overflow

Number of frames dropped due to the unavailability of descriptors.

Rst frame drops

Number of frames discarded due to the resetting of the receive process.

Collisions

Number of frames received that were damaged by late collisions.

TRANSMIT section statistics  Top

The following table describes the statistics in the TRANSMIT section of the ifstat command output when you use the command on a Znyx 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface.

Statistic

Meaning

Packets

Number of packets attempted to be transmitted.

Bytes

Number of bytes attempted to be transmitted.

Total errors

Number of hardware errors encountered while attempting to transmit.

Collisions

Number of collisions that occurred while transmitting frames.

Late collisions

Number of collisions aborted due to a late collision. This usually indicates a duplex mismatch.

Excess coll

Number of times transmission was aborted due to excessive collisions.

Queue overflow

Number of frames dropped because the software queue was full.

No carrier

Number of times the carrier signal was not present during transmission.

H/w underflow

Number of times the transmitter aborted the message because data arrived late from memory.

Defer

Number of times transmission had to be deferred.

Link failure

Number of times the link failed.

Time out

Number of times the transmit jabber timer expired.

List underflow

Number of frames that had to be dropped due to the unavailability of descriptors.

Loss of carrier

Number of times the carrier was lost.

No buffers

Number of times buffers were unavailable.

DEVICE section statistics  Top

The following table describes the statistics in the DEVICE section of the ifstat command output when you use the command on a Znyx 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface.

Statistic

Meaning

Resets

Number of times the Ethernet device was reset.

LINK INFO section statistics  Top

The following table describes the statistics in the LINK INFO section of the ifstat command output when you use the command on a Znyx 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface.

Statistic

Meaning

Auto

Autonegotiation state.

Mediatype

Media type, such as twisted pair.

Link Partner

The Autonegotiation capability of the remote end. It is unknown if Autonegotiation is disabled.

Link State

Link status.
