Description |
|---|---|
|
ChanIngressReceiveCells |
The total number of cells received from the port side on this channel. |
|
ChanIngressEfciSetRcvCells |
The number of cells received from the port side on this channel that has the CLP bit in the ATM Header set to 1. |
|
ChanIngressEfciSetXmtCells |
The number of cells received from the port side on this channel that has the EFCI bit in the ATM Header set to 1. |

The number of cells transmitted to the network with the EFCI bit in the ATM Header set to1. |
|
ChanIngressQfullDiscardCells |
The number of cells (CLP=0) tagged (CLP=1) because of SCR violation. |
|
ChanIngressClpSetDiscardCells |
The number of cells discarded due to the ingress channel queue full condition. |
|
ChanIngressTransmitCells |
The following:-* CLP=0+1 cells discarded due to PCR violation. * CLP=0+1 cells discarded due to SCR violation when CLP tagging is disabled. * CLP=1 cells dropped due to the queue length exceeding the CLP threshold. When the received cell rate is greater than 100% then the cells discarded are due to PCR violation. |
|

The total number of cells discarded due to a shelf alarm condition. |
|

|
ChanEgressReceiveUtilization |
The percentage utilization of the cells received from the network with respect to the PCR of the channel. |
|
ChanEgressPortQFullDiscard- Cells |
The total number of cells discarded due to the port queue full condition for the queue corresponding to the service type of this channel. For example if the channel for which the counters are monitored is a CBR channel then this count corresponds to the CBR queue for that port, and this queue is common for all the CBR channels on that port. |
|

|
Total CellsSegmentLpBk[Rx] |
The number Segment loopback OAM cells received from the network. |
|
RcvCellsDiscOAM[Rx] |
The number OAM cells discarded either due to CRC error or buffer not available. |
