DESCRIPTION "For an interface operating at 100 Mb/s, the
number of times there was an invalid data symbol
when a valid carrier was present.
For an interface operating in half-duplex mode
at 1000 Mb/s, the number of times the receiving
media is non-idle (a carrier event) for a period
of time equal to or greater than slotTime, and
during which there was at least one occurrence
of an event that causes the PHY to indicate
'Data reception error' or 'carrier extend error'
on the GMII.
For an interface operating in full-duplex mode
at 1000 Mb/s, the number of times the receiving
media is non-idle (a carrier event) for a period
of time equal to or greater than minFrameSize,
and during which there was at least one
occurrence of an event that causes the PHY to
indicate 'Data reception error' on the GMII.
For an interface operating at 10 Gb/s, the
number of times the receiving media is non-idle
(a carrier event) for a period of time equal to
or greater than minFrameSize, and during which
there was at least one occurrence of an event
that causes the PHY to indicate 'Receive Error'
on the XGMII.
The count represented by an instance of this
object is incremented at most once per carrier
event, even if multiple symbol errors occur
during the carrier event. This count does
not increment if a collision is present.
This counter does not increment when the
interface is operating at 10 Mb/s.
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
dot3HCStatsSymbolErrors 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."
