Unsolicited Packets Unavailable Number of times a packet descriptor could not be allocated. Packet
descriptors are used to forward Ethernet packets received by the IOPs to
the CEs. This does not indicate that incoming Ethernet packets were
dropped. The Ethernet Provider buffers some of the network packets until
the unsolicited request buffer becomes available. See also the
IOPn.EthernetProvider Show Provider Counters command.
NdisSend Errors Number of errors from NdisSend. NdisSend errors indicate that an
Ethernet packet was not transmitted on the network. NdisSend errors are
returned by a third-party NIC driver or Windows NT NDIS software.
NdisTransferData Errors Number of errors from NdisTransferData. This indicates the number of
times a third-party NIC driver failed to copy a received Ethernet packet to a
buffer supplied by the Ethernet Provider.
NdisTransferData Incomplete Number of times NdisTransferData did not copy the number of bytes
requested. This indicates the number of times a third-party NIC driver
failed to completely copy a received Ethernet packet to a buffer supplied by
the Ethernet Provider.
Receive Indications Number of receive indications. This indicates the number of times a third-
party NIC driver supplied a received Ethernet packet to the Ethernet
Provider for inspection.
