Type
Reason for the frame discard. Frames can be discarded for a variety of reasons.
The discard reasons currently handled by the frame log are timeout, unroute, and
du.
Count
The number of discarded frames logged in the frame log that have the log
timestamp, TX port, RX port, SID, DID, SFID and DFID values listed on this line of
output. Note that this count may be less than the actual number of such frames
discarded, because the frame log cannot log the details of all discarded frames.
When viewed in dump mode, the frame log displays the following information:
Log timestamp
The date and time when the frames described in this line of output were
discarded.
TX port
Egress port where the frames were bound to exit the chassis. A port displayed as
-1 (or -1/-1 on slot-based systems) indicates an internal port.
RX port
Ingress port where the frames were bound to enter the chassis. A port displayed
as -1 (or -1/-1 on slot-based systems indicates an internal port.
Type
Reason for the frame discard. Frames can be discarded for a variety of reasons.
The discard reasons currently handled by the frame log are timeout, unroute, and
du.
Frame contents
The first 64 bytes of the frame contents in hexadecimal format.

When frame logging is disabled, only the --help and --enable operations are
permitted.
-type timeout | du | unroute
Specifies the discard frame types to disable. Specify timeout for timeout discard
frames, du for destination unreachable frames, and unroute for unroutable
frames.
--enable
Enables logging of discarded frames after the feature was disabled.
-type timeout | du | unroute
Specifies the discard frame types to enable. Specify timeout for timeout discard
frames, du for destination unreachable frames, and unroute for unroutable
frames.
