1669.0. "mac frames lost count" by CSC32::PITT () Tue May 02 1995 19:42

    
    Customer would like to know EXACTLY what the 
    
       ANSI MAC frames lost count   indicates when he does a netstat -s -I
    mfa0.
    
    Is there documentation that describes each counter for the fddi?
    
    thanks

	The documentation is in different places, depending on which MIB it is from, and whether it is being called by its SNMP name (when using SNMP or hubwatch) or, by its FDDI name (when using FDDI NIF and SIF frames and the SMT MIB). As for Lost Count - it is a count of the frames received which did not end with the an allowed symbol (either a T or an I symbol) Usually this indicates that a frame was truncated by a repeat filter, before the FCS was received.
