4.2 Frame Counts By VC Report
WAN CLOUDS: FRAME COUNTS BY VC
The Cloud Throughput Report (Frame Counts by VC) provides throughput measures for
each virtual circuit both in terms of the number of frames that the virtual circuit accepted
or dropped and the number of kilobits accepted or dropped. These numbers are further divided
between normal and discard eligible (DE) frames.

The name of the WAN cloud. The first line of data in the report identifies
the WAN cloud that includes the following virtual circuits, and it lists
the total number of kilobits that were successfully transmitted through
the cloud.
The name of the virtual circuit defined inside of the WAN cloud. For
each virtual circuit, there are two rows of data. The first row lists the
frames and the second row lists the kilobits. For each row there are
separate counts for normal and DE frames and for frames accepted and
dropped. In these counts, frames that are dropped due to the excess burst
size being exceeded will be counted as DE frames. Also, the accepted
frames may be dropped later when they arrive at a filled exit buffer.
