This Counter64 field tallies the bytes on the forward direction of this bidirectional CES tunnel that were dropped on ingress, specifically traffic that the policer discarded outright on ingress because it exceeded even the excess-rate allowance. Because this is today's still-open 24-hour PM window, which keeps growing through the day and resets only when the daily boundary rolls over, any nonzero, growing count here is real traffic loss the attached service is experiencing in that direction, not just a policy flag, and tracking it separately per direction (forward vs. reverse) lets you tell whether a problem is one-sided rather than affecting the whole tunnel. For instance, over today's still-running 24-hour bin this counter might climb by roughly 2 KB of forward-direction traffic — if the matching counter for the reverse direction stays far lower (or far higher) than this one, that directional imbalance is itself the diagnostic clue, since a healthy bidirectional tunnel would normally carry fairly similar dropped volume both ways.
