Description: For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of packets received via the interface which were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol. For character-oriented or fixed-length interfaces that support protocol multiplexing the number of transmission units received via the interface which were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol. For any interface that does not support protocol multiplexing, this counter will always be 0.

What is portsAggregationIfInUnknownProtos?

A 64-bit counter of inbound packets on this trunk discarded because their protocol wasn't recognized, which stays at zero on a well-behaved network and rises only if unexpected traffic types appear.
