Transmit Packet Count (Tx Pkt Count)  The number of packets 
that have been successfully transmitted by the port.

bytes successfully transmitted by the port.
Total Collisions

any of the collisions. This value will always be zero for a full-duplex 
device.
Received Packet Count (Rx Pkt Count) — The total number of good 
packets that have been received by the port.
Received Byte Count (RX Byte Count) — The total number of bytes 
that were received by the port, including bad or lost frames. This 
number includes bytes contained in the Frame Check Sequence (FCS)

by the port that are addressed to a broadcast address.
Receive Multicast (RX Mcast) — The total number of frames received 
by the port that are addressed to a multicast address.
