Breakdown of activity at link layer
Keys
Each entry in this counter group is keyed by the EtherType value, which identifies the protocol encapsulated in the Ethernet frame. Common EtherTypes include:
| KEY | PROTOCOL | DESCRIPTION |
|---|
| 0800 | IPv4 | Internet Protocol v4 |
| 86DD | IPv6 | Internet Protocol v6 |
| 0806 | ARP | Address Resolution Protocol |
| 8035 | RARP | Reverse ARP |
| 8100 | VLAN | Virtual LAN (802.1Q) |
| 8847 | MPLS | Multiprotocol Label Switching |

Meter list
| ID | DESCRIPTION | TOP COUNT | BOTTOM COUNT | TYPE | UNITS | DESCRIPTION |
|---|
| 0 | Total | 10 | 0 | VT_RATE_COUNTER | Bps | This meter reports the total bandwidth in bytes per second for frames of this EtherType. Multiply by eight to obtain bits per second. |
| 1 | Packets | 10 | 0 | VT_RATE_COUNTER | pps | This meter reports the packet rate in packets per second for frames of this EtherType. |
| 2 | Unused Cardinality counter | 20 | 20 | VT_GAUGE | Uniques | This is a reserved gauge slot intended for a unique value cardinality metric. It is not currently mapped to any field for this counter group, so it remains an inactive placeholder with no data populated. |
| 3 | Unused Cardinality counter | 20 | 20 | VT_GAUGE | Uniques | This is a second reserved cardinality gauge slot with the same status as meter 2. It is inactive and not instrumented for this group. |
