Physical interface

Name of the physical interface.

Enabled

State of the interface. Possible values are described in the “Enabled Field” section under Common Output Fields Description.

Interface index

Physical interface's index number, which reflects its initialization sequence.

SNMP ifIndex

SNMP index number for the physical interface.

Generation

Unique number for use by Juniper Networks technical support only.

Type

Encapsulation being used on the interface.

Link-level type

Encapsulation being used on the physical interface.

MTU

MTU size on the physical interface.

Clocking

Reference clock source: can be Internal or External.

Speed

Speed at which the interface is running.

Device flags

Information about the physical device. Possible values are described in the “Device Flags” section under Common Output Fields Description.

Interface flags

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

Link type

Physical interface link type: Full-Duplex or Half-Duplex.

Link flags

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

Physical info

Information about the physical interface.

Hold-times

Current interface hold-time up and hold-time down, in milliseconds.

Current address

Configured MAC address.

Hardware address

MAC address of the hardware.

Alternate link address

Backup address of the link.

Last flapped

Date, time, and how long ago the interface went from down to up. The format is Last flapped: year-month-day hour:minute:second timezone (hour:minute:second ago). For example, Last flapped: 2002-04-26 10:52:40 PDT (04:33:20 ago).

Input Rate

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

Output Rate

Output rate in bps and pps.

Statistics last cleared

Time when the statistics for the interface were last set to zero.

Traffic statistics

Number and rate of bytes and packets received and transmitted on the 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.

Input errors

Input errors on the interface. The following paragraphs explain the counters whose meaning might not be obvious:

• Errors—Sum of the incoming frame terminates and FCS errors.

• Drops—Number of packets dropped by the input queue of the I/O Manager ASIC. If the interface is saturated, this number increments once for every packet that is dropped by the ASIC's RED mechanism.

• 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—Number of frames that the incoming packet match code discarded because they were not recognized or not of interest. Usually, this field reports protocols that the Junos OS does not handle.

• Resource errors—Sum of transmit drops.

Output errors

Output errors on the interface. The following paragraphs explain the counters whose meaning might not be obvious:

• 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 (perhaps once every 10 seconds), the cable, the far-end system, or the PIC is malfunctioning.

• Errors—Sum of the outgoing frame terminates 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 that is dropped by the ASIC's RED mechanism.

• MTU errors—Number of packets larger than the MTU threshold.

• Resource errors—Sum of transmit drops.

Logical interface

Name of the logical interface.

Index

Logical interface index number, which reflects its initialization sequence.

SNMP ifIndex

SNMP interface index number.

Generation

Unique number for use by Juniper Networks technical support only.

Flags

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

Encapsulation

Encapsulation on the logical interface.

Input packets

Number of packets received on the logical interface.

Output packets

Number of packets transmitted on the logical interface.

Traffic statistics

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

Local statistics

Statistics for traffic received from and transmitted to the Routing Engine. When a burst of traffic is received, the value in the output packet rate field might briefly exceed the peak cell rate. It takes awhile (generally, less than 1 second) for this counter to stabilize.

Transit statistics

Statistics for traffic transiting the router. When a burst of traffic is received, the value in the output packet rate field might briefly exceed the peak cell rate. It takes generally less than 1 second for the counter to stabilize.

protocol-family

Protocol family configured on the logical interface. If the protocol is inet, the IP address of the interface is also displayed.

Protocol

Protocol family configured on the logical interface, such as iso, inet6, mpls.

MTU

MTU size on the logical interface.

Generation

Unique number for use by Juniper Networks technical support only.

Route table

Routing table in which the logical interface address is located. For example, 0 refers to the routing table inet.0.

Flags

Information about the protocol family flags. Possible values are described in the “Family Flags” section under Common Output Fields Description.

Addresses, Flags

Information about the address flags. Possible values are described in the “Addresses Flags” section under Common Output Fields Description.

Destination

IP address of the remote side of the connection.

Local

IP address of the logical interface.

Broadcast

Broadcast address.

Generation

Unique number for use by Juniper Networks technical support only.
