IP Statistics
The following table describes the Internet Protocol statistics fields. 
 
Table 13-8  
IP Statistics
Field
Description
ipInReceives
The total number of input datagrams received from interfaces, including those 
received in error.
ipInHdrErrors
The number of input datagrams discarded due to errors in their IP headers, 
including bad 
checksums
, version number mismatch, other format errors, 
time-to-live exceeded, errors discovered in processing their IP options, and so 
forth.
ipInAddrErrors
The number of input datagrams discarded because the IP address in their IP 
header's destination field was not a valid address to be received at this entity (the 
switch). This count includes invalid addresses (for example, 0.0.0.0) and 
addresses of unsupported Classes (for example, Class E). For entities which are 
not IP Gateways and therefore do not forward datagrams, this counter includes 
datagrams discarded because the destination address was not a local address.
ipForwDatagrams
The number of input datagrams for which this entity (the switch) was not their 
final IP destination, as a result of which an attempt was made to find a route to 
forward them to that final destination. In entities which do not act as IP Gate-
ways, this counter will include only those packets, which were Source-Routed 
via this entity (the switch), and the Source- Route option processing was success-
ful.
ipInUnknownProtos The number of locally addressed datagrams received successfully but discarded 
because of an unknown or unsupported protocol.
ipInDiscards
The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to 
prevent their continued processing, but which were discarded (for example, for 
lack of buffer space). Note that this counter does not include any datagrams dis-
carded while awaiting re-assembly.
ipInDelivers
The total number of input datagrams successfully delivered to IP user-protocols 
(including ICMP).
ipOutRequests
The total number of IP datagrams which local IP user-protocols (including 
ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for transmission. Note that this counter does not 
include any datagrams counted in 
ipForwDatagrams
.
ipOutDiscards
The number of output IP datagrams for which no problem was encountered to 
prevent their transmission to their destination, but which were discarded (for 
example, for lack of buffer space). Note that this counter would include data-
grams counted in 
ipForwDatagrams
 if any such packets met this (discre-
tionary) discard criterion.
