Object

column SNMPv2-SMICounter32
A count of frames received on a particular
interface that are an integral number of octets
in length but do not pass the FCS check.  This
count does not include frames received with
frame-too-long or frame-too-short error.
              
The count represented by an instance of this
object is incremented when the frameCheckError
status is returned by the MAC service to the
LLC (or other MAC user). Received frames for
which multiple error conditions pertain are,
according to the conventions of IEEE 802.3
Layer Management, counted exclusively according
to the error status presented to the LLC.
              
Note:  Coding errors detected by the physical
layer for speeds above 10 Mb/s will cause the
frame to fail the FCS check.
              
For interfaces operating at 10 Gb/s, this
counter can roll over in less than 5 minutes if
              
it is incrementing at its maximum rate.  Since
that amount of time could be less than a
management station's poll cycle time, in order
to avoid a loss of information, a management
station is advised to poll the
dot3HCStatsFCSErrors object for 10 Gb/s or
faster interfaces.
              
Discontinuities in the value of this counter can
occur at re-initialization of the management
system, and at other times as indicated by the
value of ifCounterDiscontinuityTime.
