Error Type |
Description |
Input Errors |
Total number of errors. It includes runts, giants, no buffer, CRC, frame, overrun, and ignored counts. |
Runts |
Packets that are discarded because they are smaller than the minimum packet size for the medium. For instance, any Ethernet packet that is less than 64 bytes is considered a runt. |
Giants |
Packets that are discarded because they exceed the maximum packet size for the medium. For example, any Ethernet packet that is greater than 1,518 bytes is considered a giant. |
CRC |
CRC errors are generated when the calculated checksum does not match received checksum |
Output Errors |
Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission from the interface being examined |
Collisions |
Transmissions due to Ethernet collisions |
Late Collisions |
Collision that occurs after 512 bits of the frame have been transmitted |
