Line Description
• Number of Multicast, Broadcast, and Unicast packets:
• Multicasts = number of MAC multicast packets
• Broadcasts = number of MAC broadcast packets
• Unicasts = number of MAC unicast packets
• Number of VLANs, throttles, discards, and collisions:
• Vlans = number of VLAN tagged packets
• throttles = packets containing PAUSE frames
• discarded = number of packets discarded without any processing
• collisions = number of packet collisions
• wred=count both packets discarded in the MAC and in the hardware-based
queues
Rate information... Estimate of the input and output trac rate over a designated interval (30 to 299
seconds). Trac rate is displayed in bits, packets per second, and percent of line rate.
Time since... Elapsed time since the last interface status change (hh:mm:ss format).
