Forwarded Datagrams (ipForwDatagrams)

The number of input datagrams for which this entity 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
Gateways, this counter will include only those packets which were source-routed via this entity, and the source-
route option processing was successful.

Discarded for Unknown Protos (ipInUnknownProtos)

The number of locally-addressed datagrams received successfully but discarded because of an unknown or
unsupported protocol.

Discarded w/No Errors (ipInDiscards)

The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to prevent their continued pro-
cessing, but which were discarded (for example, due to lack of buffer space).

Note

The Discarded w/No Errors counter does not include any datagrams dis-
carded while awaiting re-assembly.

Total Deliveries (ipInDelivers)

The total number of input datagrams successfully delivered to IP user-protocols (including ICMP).

Out Requests (ipOutRequests)

The total number of IP datagrams which local IP user-protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests
for transmission.

Note

The Out Requests counter does not include any datagrams counted in
ipForwDatagrams.

Out Discards (ipOutDiscards)

The number of output IP datagrams for which no problem was encountered to prevent their transmission to
their destination, but which were discarded (e.g., for lack of buffer space).

Note

The Out Discards counter would include datagrams counted in ipForwDat-
agrams if any such packets met this (discretionary) discard criterion.

Discarded for No Routes (ipOutNoRoutes)

The number of IP datagrams discarded because no route could be found to transmit them to their destination.

Note

The Discarded for No Routes counter includes any packets counted in
ipForwDatagrams which meet this “no-route” criterion. This includes any
datagrams which a host cannot route because all of its default gateways are
down.

Reassembly Timeout (ipReasmTimeout)

The maximum number of seconds which received fragments are held while they are awaiting reassembly at
this entity.
