Instance Attribute “Media Counters”
The attribute is a collection of counters related to the Ethernet physical interface.
In Errors UDINT
Inbound packets received on the interface but
which contained errors (excluding Discards).
In Unknown Protocols UDINT
Inbound packets received on the interface
which belonged to unknown protocols.
Out Octets UDINT
The number of octets sent on the interface
(including framing characters).
Out Unicast Packets UDINT
The number of unicast packets requested to
be transmitted on the interface, including
those that were discarded or not sent.
Out NonUnicast Pack-
ets
UDINT
The number of non-unicast packets requested
to be transmitted on the interface, including
those that were discarded or not sent.
Out Discards UDINT Outbound packets which were discarded.
Out Errors UDINT
Outbound packets which contained errors
(excluding Discards).

Field name Data type Description
Alignment Errors UDINT
Frames received that are not an integral number of
octets in length.
FCS Errors UDINT Frames received that do not pass the FCS check.
Single Collisions UDINT
Successfully transmitted frames which experienced
exactly one collision.
Multiple Collisions UDINT
Successfully transmitted frames which experienced
more than one collision.
SQE Test Errors UDINT
The number of times SQE test error message is
generated.
Deferred Transmis-
sions
UDINT
Frames for which the first transmission attempt is
delayed because the medium is busy.
Late Collisions UDINT
Number of times a collision is detected later than
512 bit-times into the transmission of a packet.
Excessive Collisions UDINT
Frames for which transmission fails due to exces-
sive collisions.
MAC Transmit Errors UDINT
Frames for which transmission fails due to an inter-
nal MAC sub layer transmit error.
Carrier Sense Errors UDINT
Times that the carrier sense condition was lost or
never asserted when attempting to transmit a
frame.
Frame Too Long UDINT
Frames received that exceed the maximum permit-
ted frame size.
