Table 5 defines the different types of received frames.

Table 5 Received Ethernet Frames

Frame Type

Description

Received Good Frames

Total number of frames received by the switch since the last reset.

Filtered Frames

Frames received by the switch but not forwarded because the
destination is within the same LAN segment, therefore, the frame
was already seen by all nodes on the segment.

Broadcasts

Frames received by the switch destined for ALL nodes on the
network, excluding multicast frames.

Multicasts

Frames received by the switch destined for multiple but specific
addresses, excluding broadcast frames.

CRC Errors

Frames with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) error but with the
proper length (64-1518 bytes).

Alignment Errors

Frames with a non-integral number of bytes, that is, frame length in
bits are not evenly divisible by 8, but with the proper length (64-
1518 bytes).

Undersized Frames

Frames less than the minimum specified by IEEE 802.3 (64 bytes
including the CRC); also called runts.

Fragments

Total undersized frames, frames with alignment errors, and frames
with FCS errors (CRC errors).

Long Frames

Frames exceeding the maximum specified by IEEE 802.3 (1518 bytes
including the CRC).
