Output Statistics: Displays output statistics sent out of the interface including:
• Number of packets, bytes and underruns out of the interface
packets = total number of packets
bytes = total number of bytes 
underruns = number of packets with FIFO underrun 
conditions
• 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 IP, VLAN and MPLs packets:
IP Packets = number of IP packets 
Vlans = number of VLAN tagged packets 
MPLS = number of MPLS packets (found on a LSR 
interface)
• Number of throttles and discards packets:
throttles = packets containing PAUSE frames 
discarded = number of packets discarded without any 
processing 
Rate information... Estimate of the input and output traffic rate over a designated interval 
(30 to 299 seconds).
Traffic 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).
