Znyx 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface statistics
RECEIVE section statistics
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
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.

Statistic
|
Meaning
|
Resets

|
Link State
|
Link status.
