Link layer byte count in EthernetFace
100%
Description
Increment link layer byte counters on sending path and receiving path of EthernetFace.
The counters need not distinguish between network layer packet types.

- Blocked by Task #1729: Add byte counters to FaceCounters added
Updated by Davide Pesavento over 10 years ago
This task does not need to depend on #1209. Byte counters can be implemented now by counting the payload of ethernet frames. When fragmentation is implemented, we can simply add the size of NDNLP headers to the counters.

EthernetFace is not fully working without NDNLP.
There will be some changes for NDNLP support.
This I prefer to defer this until NDNLP is supported.

Since @Davide knows how to do this without #1209, I'm assigning this Task to him.

Should the zero-padding added in the send path be counted? (I think so)

No. TCP headers are excluded, so Ethernet trailers are also excluded.
Updated by Davide Pesavento over 10 years ago
The padding is not part of the ethernet frame header or trailer, it's added to the ethernet frame payload when the data (upper-layer packet) is shorter than the minimum payload length allowed by the ethernet standard.
In any case, I'm fine either way, just wanted to be sure that there's no misunderstanding.
