Object and Attributes Definition
Format and Derivation of 
Value
dot3StatsTable Objects: Entries describing the 
Ethernet interfaces of 
the TCP/IP resources 
being monitored. 
Refer to dot3StatsTable 
Maintenance on page 14-28 for 
information on how entries are 
created and updated.
dot3StatsIndex
 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1
 read-only
 INTEGER
An index value that 
uniquely identifies an 
interface to an 
ethernet-like medium. 
The interface 
identified by a 
particular value of this 
index is the same 
interface as identified 
by the same value of 
ifIndex for the ifTable 
that is managed by 
the TCP/IP Subagent.
This object is supported for 
E4SA, GESA. and G4SA. It is 
an integer ranging from 1 to the 
number of interfaces associated 
with the TCP/IP subsystem. This 
value is updated as each 
interface associated with the 
TCP/IP subsystem is obtained 
using the SPI procedure calls.
dot3StatsAlignmentErrors
 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.2
 read-only
 Counter
Number of frames 
received on a 
particular interface 
that are not an 
integral number of 
octets in length. 
This value is supported for 
E4SA, GESA, and G4SA. It is a 
value obtained from:
•
the ‘RXalec’ field of the 
structure 
LME4SATypeStatsType for 
E4SA, 
•
the 
dot3StatsAlignmentErrors 
field of the structure 
LMCLGESARxStatsType for 
GESA
•
the alignmentErrors field of 
the structure 
LMCLG4SARxStatsType for 
G4SA.
