GS716Tv3, GS724Tv4, and GS748Tv5 Smart Switches Switch Statistics The Switch Statistics screen displays detailed statistical information about the traffic the switch handles. To view the switch statistics, select Monitoring > Ports > Switch Statistics. The following table describes the switch statistics displayed on the screen. Table 70. Switch statistics Field Description ifIndex The interface index of the interface table entry associated with the processor of this switch. Octets Received The total number of octets of data received by the processor (excluding framing bits, but including FCS octets). Packets Received Without Errors The total number of packets (including broadcast packets and multicast packets) received by the processor. Unicast Packets Received The number of subnetwork-unicast packets delivered to a higher layer protocol. Multicast Packets Received The total number of packets received that were directed to a multicast address. This number does not include packets directed to the broadcast address. Broadcast Packets Received The total number of packets received that were directed to the broadcast address. This does not include multicast packets. Receive Packets Discarded The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be discarded, even though no errors had been detected, in order to prevent their being delivered to a higher layer protocol. A possible reason for discarding a packet could be to free up buffer space. Octets Transmitted The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface, including framing characters. Packets Transmitted Without The total number of packets transmitted out of the interface. Errors Unicast Packets Transmitted The total number of packets that higher level protocols requested be transmitted to a subnetwork-unicast address, including those that were discarded or not sent. Multicast Packets Transmitted The total number of packets that higher level protocols requested be transmitted to a Multicast address, including those that were discarded or not sent. Broadcast Packets Transmitted The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested be transmitted to the Broadcast address, including those that were discarded or not sent.

Field
Description
ifIndex

protocol.
Multicast Packets Received
The total number of packets received that were directed to a multicast
address. This number does not include packets directed to the
broadcast address.
Broadcast Packets Received
The total number of packets received that were directed to the
broadcast address. This does not include multicast packets.
Receive Packets Discarded

framing characters.
Packets Transmitted Without
Errors
The total number of packets transmitted out of the interface.
Unicast Packets Transmitted
The total number of packets that higher level protocols requested be
transmitted to a subnetwork-unicast address, including those that were

Multicast Packets
Transmitted
The total number of packets that higher level protocols requested be
transmitted to a Multicast address, including those that were discarded
or not sent.

Transmitted
The total number of packets that higher-level protocols requested be
