Collection Services data files: QAPMTCPIFC

This database file contains TCP/IP data related to individual TCP/IP interfaces.

There are one or two records per TCP/IP interface per collection interval. If both Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) and Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) data are available for an interface, the primary record will contain the combined data. If the data was collected on a release that supports the collection of independent data for IPv6, a secondary record will contain the data specific to IPv6. If data is available for only one Internet Protocol version, the primary record will contain data specific to that Internet Protocol version and there will not be a secondary record.

Note: The TCP/IP performance data includes data for both for Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4), for Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), or for both Internet Protocol version 4 and Internet Protocol version 6.
Field Name Description Attribute
INTNUM Interval number: The nth sample interval based on the start time specified in the Create Performance Data (CRTPFRDTA) command. PD (5,0)
DTETIM Interval date (yymmdd) and time (hhmmss). The date and time of the sample interval. C (12)
INTSEC Number of seconds TCP/IP interface was active in this sample interval. PD (7,0)
DTECEN Century digit. C (1)
TINUM TCP/IP interface number. PD (5,0)
TITYPE TCP/IP interface type. Possible TCP/IP interface types include:
  • 01 = other
  • 05 = RFC877 X25
  • 06 = Ethernet CSMACD
  • 07 = ISO88023 CSMACD
  • 09 = ISO88025 Token Ring
  • 15 = FDDI
  • 23 = PPP
  • 24 = Software Loopback
  • 28 = SLIP
  • 32 = Frame Relay

This is a partial list. For a full list, see RFC 1213.
