Ethernet Frame Counts and Statistics on MX Series Routers
The following considerations apply to Ethernet frame counts and statistics on Juniper Networks MX Series
5G Universal Routing Platforms:
•
Interface counters do not include the 7-byte Ethernet frame preamble and the frame delimiter byte.
•
In Media Access Control (MAC) statistics. the frame size includes the MAC header and cyclical redundancy
check (CRC) before any VLAN rewrite or other rules are applied.
•
In traffic statistics, the frame size includes the Layer 2 header without the trailer CRC and after any VLAN
rewrite or other rules are applied.
