The following definitions explain each field of the Interface Statistics
screen:
Interface (Read-Only)
This field displays the Interface number for which statistics are currently

represents ENET 1 of the module. To view other interface statistics, refer
to Section 5.23.1.
Name (Read-Only)
The Name field displays the type of interface for which statistics are
being displayed.

This field displays the total number of octets (bytes) that have been
received on the Interface. This includes all octets including bad frames,
and framing characters.
InUnicast (Read-Only)
The InUnicast field displays the total number of packets that have been
received that were sent to a single address.
InNonUnicast (Read-Only)
This field displays the total number of packets that have been received
that were delivered to a broadcast or multicast address.
InDiscards (Read-Only)
The InDiscards field displays the total number of inbound packets that

was being overutilized.
InErrors (Read-Only)
This field displays the total number of inbound packets that have been
discarded because they contained errors. This field represents the total
number of errored frames, regardless of the cause of the error.
InUnknownProtos (Read-Only)

were discarded because the packets were in an unknown or unsupported
format.
