Description

The EtherLike Interface Dot3 Statistics Monitor collects Ethernet-specific data for network interfaces in compliance with IEEE 802.3 standards. It provides details on various performance metrics and errors, including:

  • FCS errors
  • Single collision frames
  • Multiple collision frames
  • Late collisions
  • Excessive collisions
  • Internal MAC transmit errors
  • Internal MAC receive errors

Monitored Object Identifiers (OIDs)
