The tables below describe the fields in the display:

Table 1-11. IP Statistics: 
Field Description

Recvd:

total

The total number of input datagrams received from interfaces, including those received in error.

local destination

The number of packets received with this router as the destination.

header errors

The number of input datagrams discarded due to errors in their IP headers, including bad checksums, version number mismatch, other format errors, time-to-live exceeded, errors discovered in processing their IP options, etc.

address errors

The number of input datagrams discarded because the IP address in their IP header's destination field was not a valid address to be received at this entity.

unknown proto

The number of packets that were of an unknown protocol type.

Sent:

generated

The total number of IP datagrams which local IP user- protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for transmission.

forwarded

The number of input datagrams for which this entity was not their final IP destination, as a result of which an attempt was made to find a route to forward them to that final destination.

fragmented

The number of fragmented packets received.

fragments created

The number of IP datagrams that have been successfully fragmented at this entity.

couldn't fragment

The number of IP datagrams that have been discarded because they needed to be fragmented at this entity but could not be, e.g., because their Don't Fragment flag was set.

Drop:

input discards

The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to prevent their continued processing, but which were discarded (e.g., for lack of buffer space). Note that this counter does not include any datagrams discarded while awaiting reassembly.

output discards

The number of output IP datagrams for which no problem was encountered to prevent their transmission to their destination, but which were discarded (e.g., for lack of buffer space). Note that this counter would include datagrams counted in ipForwDatagrams if any such packets met this (discretionary) discard criterion.

routing discards

The number of routing entries which were chosen to be discarded even though they are valid. One possible reason for discarding such an entry could be to free-up buffer space for other routing entries.

no route

The number of IP datagrams discarded because no route could be found to transmit them to their destination. Note that this counter includes any packets counted in ipForwDatagrams which meet this `no-route' criterion. Note that this includes any datagrams which a host cannot route because all of its default routers are down.

Table 1-12. ICMP Statistics 
Field Description

Recvd:

total

The total number of ICMP messages which the entity received. Note that this counter includes all those counted by aviciModuleIcmpInErrors.

errors

The number of ICMP messages which the entity received but determined as having ICMP-specific errors (bad ICMP checksums, bad length, etc.).

unreachable

The number of ICMP Destination Unreachable messages received.

timeouts

The number of ICMP Time Exceeded messages received.

param problems

The number of ICMP Parameter Problem messages received.

quenchs

The number of ICMP Source Quench messages received.

redirects

The number of ICMP Redirect messages received.

echos

The number of ICMP Echo (request) messages received.

echo replies

The number of ICMP Echo Reply messages received.

timestamps

The number of ICMP Timestamp (request) messages received.

timestamp replies

The number of ICMP Timestamp Reply messages received.

addr masks

The number of ICMP Address Mask Request messages received.

addr mask replies

The number of ICMP Address Mask Reply messages received.

Sent:

total

The total number of ICMP messages which this entity attempted to send. Note that this counter includes all those counted by tsrIcmpOutErrors.

errors

The number of ICMP messages which this entity did not send due to problems discovered within ICMP such as a lack of buffers. This value should not include errors discovered outside the ICMP layer such as the inability of IP to route the resultant datagram.

unreachable

The number of ICMP Destination Unreachable messages sent.

timeouts

The number of ICMP Time Exceeded messages sent.

param problems

The number of ICMP Parameter Problem messages sent.

quenchs

The number of ICMP Source Quench messages sent.

redirects

The number of ICMP Redirect messages sent. For a host, this object is always zero, since hosts do not send redirects.

echos

The number of ICMP Echo (request) messages sent.

echo replies

The number of ICMP Echo Reply messages sent.

timestamps

The number of ICMP Timestamp (request) messages sent.

timestamp replies

The number of ICMP Timestamp Reply messages sent.

addr masks

The number of ICMP Address Mask Request messages sent.

addr mask replies

The number of ICMP Address Mask Reply messages sent.

:

Table 1-13. UDP Statistics 
Field Description

Rcvd:

total

The total number of UDP datagrams delivered to UDP users.

errors

The number of received UDP datagrams that could not be delivered for reasons other than the lack of an application at the destination port.

no port

Number of times a packet was received that was directed to a port with no application listening.

Sent:

total

The total number of UDP datagrams sent from this entity.

:

Table 1-14. TCP Statistics 
Field Description

Port:

active opens

The number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the SYN-SENT state from the CLOSED state.

passive opens

The number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the SYN-RCVD state from the LISTEN state.

established

The number of TCP connections for which the current state is either ESTABLISHED or CLOSE- WAIT.

resets

The number of TCP segments sent containing the RST flag.

fails

Recvd:

total

The total number of segments received, including those received in error. This count includes segments received on currently established connections.

errors

The total number of segments received in error (e.g., bad TCP checksums).

Sent:

total

The total number of segments sent, including those on current connections but excluding those containing only retransmitted octets.

retransmissions

The total number of segments retransmitted - that is, the number of TCP segments transmitted containing one or more previously transmitted octets.

resets sent

The number of TCP segments sent containing the RST flag.
