Link type

Data transmission type.

detail extensive none

Link flags

Information about the link. Possible values are described in the “Link Flags” section under Common Output Fields Description.

detail extensive

Physical info

Information about the physical interface.

detail extensive

Hold-times

Current interface hold-time up and hold-time down. Value is in milliseconds.

detail extensive

Current address

Configured media access control (MAC) address.

detail extensive

Hardware address

MAC address of the hardware.

detail extensive

Alternate link address

Backup address of the link.

detail extensive

CoS queues

Number of class-of-service (CoS) queues configured.

detail extensive none

Last flapped

Date, time, and length of time since the interface changed its status from down to up.

detail extensive none

Input rate

Input rate in bits per second (bps) and packets per second (pps).

none specified

Output rate

Output rate in bps and pps.

none specified

Statistics last cleared

Time when the interface statistics were last set to zero.

detail extensive

Traffic statistics

Number and rate of bytes and packets received and transmitted on the logical and physical interface.

• Input bytes—Number of bytes received on the interface.
• Output bytes—Number of bytes transmitted on the interface.
• Input packets—Number of packets received on the interface.
• Output packets—Number of packets transmitted on the interface.

detail extensive

Input errors

• Errors—Input errors on the interface.
• Drops—Number of packets dropped by the output queue of the I/O Manager ASIC.
• Framing errors—Number of packets received with an invalid frame checksum (FCS).
• Runts—Frames received smaller than the runt threshold.
• Giants—Frames received larger than the giant threshold.
• Policed discards—Frames that the incoming packet match code discarded because they were not recognized or were not of interest. Usually, this field reports protocols that the Junos OS does not support.
• Resource errors—Sum of transmit drops.

extensive

Output errors

• Carrier transitions—Number of times the interface has gone from down to up. This number does not normally increment quickly, increasing only when the cable is unplugged, the far-end system is powered down and then up, or another problem occurs. If the number of carrier transitions increments quickly, possibly once every 10 seconds, the cable, the remote system, or the interface is malfunctioning.
• Errors—Sum of outgoing frame aborts and FCS errors.
• Drops—Number of packets dropped by the output queue of the I/O Manager ASIC. If the interface is saturated, this number increments once for every packet dropped by the ASIC RED mechanism.
• MTU errors—Number of packets larger than the MTU threshold.
• Resource errors—Sum of transmit drops.

extensive

Queue counters

CoS queue number and its associated user-configured forwarding class name.

• Queued packets—Number of queued packets.
• Transmitted packets—Number of transmitted packets.
• Dropped packets—Number of packets dropped by the ASIC's RED mechanism.

detail extensive

Packet Forwarding Engine configuration

Information about the configuration of the Packet Forwarding Engine:

• Destination slot—FPC slot number.
• PLP byte—Packet Level Protocol byte.

extensive

CoS information

Information about the CoS queue for the physical interface.

• CoS transmit queue—Queue number and its associated user-configured forwarding class name.

• Bandwidth %—Percentage of bandwidth allocated to the queue.

• Bandwidth bps—Bandwidth allocated to the queue (in bps).

• Buffer %—Percentage of buffer space allocated to the queue.

• Buffer usec—Amount of buffer space allocated to the queue, in microseconds. This value is nonzero only if the buffer size is configured in terms of time.

• Priority—Queue priority: low or high.

• Limit—Displayed if rate limiting is configured for the queue. Possible values are none and exact. If exact is configured, the queue transmits only up to the configured bandwidth, even if excess bandwidth is available. If none is configured, the queue transmits beyond the configured bandwidth if bandwidth is available.

extensive

Logical interface

Name of the logical interface.

SNMP ifIndex

SNMP interface index number for the logical interface.

Flags

Information about the logical interface. Possible values are described in the “Logical Interface Flags” section under Common Output Fields Description.

All levels

Encapsulation
