Description: Packets Received Discarded is the number of inbound packets that were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent their being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol. One possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space.

What is netPacketsReceivedDiscarded?

This Gauge32 reports the count of inbound packets deliberately discarded (not due to errors) before being passed to a higher-layer protocol, for example to free up buffer space.
