Monitoring and Managing the Switch
The switch increments this count when it discards a frame that 
cannot be routed. This occurs most frequently when a destination 
becomes unavailable without the source realizing the destination 
is unavailable. There are no thresholds for this value. Typically, 
this occurs when the destination is not available due to the 
destination device’s action.

Four Byte Words Transmitted
The number of four-byte words transmitted.
Error Statistics
Port errors indicate that a port is not operating correctly. Use this data 
to isolate problems with port and link operations. The statistics in this 
table include:
Link failures
A link failure was recorded in response to a not operational 
sequence (NOS), protocol timeout, or port failure. At the 
Hardware View, a yellow triangle appears to indicate a link 
incident, or a blinking red and yellow diamond appears to 
indicate a port failure.
Sync losses
A loss of synchronization was detected because the attached 
device was reset or disconnected from the port. At the Hardware 
View
, a yellow triangle appears to indicate a link incident.
Signal losses
A loss of signal was detected because the attached device was 
reset or disconnected from the port. At the Hardware View, a 
yellow triangle appears to indicate a link incident.
Primitive sequence errors
An incorrect primitive sequence was received from the attached 
device, indicating a Fibre Channel link-level protocol violation. 
At the Hardware View, a yellow triangle appears to indicate a link 
incident.
