This read-only Counter32 counts jabber frames, ones exceeding the Ethernet maximum packet size of 1518 bytes, recorded on Port 2 during this 15-second short-term sample, with 4294967294 meaning unknown. Because the object's own description attributes jabbers most often to faulty transceivers sending spurious noise onto the network, an admin uses a rising count on Port 2 to hunt for a specific bad NIC or transceiver to replace. For example, a Jabbers count that only increases on Port 2 whenever one particular workstation is powered on strongly suggests that workstation's transceiver is the faulty one.
