Any Ethernet frame
that is less than 64 bytes is considered a runt. Runts are usually
caused by collisions. If there is more than 1 runt per million bytes
received, it should be investigated.
giants Number of Ethernet frames that are discarded because they exceed
the maximum Ethernet frame size. Any Ethernet frame that is larger
than 1518 bytes is considered a giant.
input error Includes runts, giants, no buffer, cyclic redundancy check (CRC),
frame, overrun, and ignored counts. Other input-related errors can
also cause the input error count to be increased, and some
datagrams can have more than one error. Therefore, this sum might
not balance with the sum of enumerated input error counts.
CRC CRC generated by the originating LAN station or far-end device
does not match the checksum calculated from the data received. On
a LAN, this usually indicates noise or transmission problems on the
LAN interface or the LAN bus itself. A high number of CRCs is
usually the result of collisions or a station transmitting bad data.
frame Number of packets received incorrectly having a CRC error and a
noninteger number of octets. On a LAN, this is usually the result of
collisions or a malfunctioning Ethernet device.
