Description: The number of frames dropped by the port for reasons other than: DE, unknown DLCI, bandwidth admission, input/output congestion, frame error, inactive PVC, or disabled port. These are generally internal errors, such as 'Heap buffer failed'.

What is portDroppedFrames?

Counts frames dropped on this port for reasons other than the usual causes tracked elsewhere (DE discard, unknown DLCI, bandwidth admission, congestion, frame errors, inactive PVC, disabled port) -- i.e. frames lost to internal errors such as a failed heap-buffer allocation, so a nonzero or rising count points an admin at a hardware or resource problem rather than normal congestion.
