This section defines the card statistics that
are output from the lanadmin(1M) command. The following is a sample card statistics
output. An explanation of the statistics is in the following section.

Explanation
of Card Statistics |
 |
The following list provides descriptions of the card statistics
that are output from the lanadmin(1M) command:
Driver Statistics
- In Packet
Error
Number of inbound packets discarded because they were
received when the driver was not operational or the packet length
was incorrect.
- Out Packet Error
Number of outbound packets discarded because the driver
was not operational or the driver had insufficient resources (memory)
to transmit the packet.
- Loopback packets
Number of packets looped
back to the upper layers by the driver.
- Link Down events
Number of link down events, that is, cable disconnects
processed by the driver.
Host Command Statistics
- nicCmdsDelMCastAddr
Number of times the driver has issued a command
to the NIC to delete a multicast MAC address.
- nicCmdsSetPromiscMode
Number of times the NIC received a command to enable
or disable promiscuous mode.
- nicCmdsSetMACAddr
Number of times the NIC received a command to set the
current MAC address.
- nicCmdsClearStats
Number of times the NIC received a command to clear
the card statistics maintained by the card.
NIC Events Statistics
- nicEventsFirmwareOperational
The number of events the driver has received from the
NIC indicating that the firmware on the NIC is in the operational
state.
- nicEventsStatsUpdated
The number of times the NIC has updated the MIB interface
statistics.
- nicEventsLinkStateChanged
The number of events the driver has processed indicating
that the status of the link has changed.
- nicEventsMCastListUpdated
The number of times the NIC generated an event to report
the addition or deletion of a multicast MAC address.
Interface Statistics
These are the MIB statistics collected by the card as documented
in RFC1066.
