5.4.5.4 Statistics
The MC might use the statistics commands as defined in NC-SI. These counters are meant mostly for
debug purposes and are not all supported.
The statistics are divided into three commands:
1. Controller statistics - These are statistics on the primary interface (to the host OS). See the NC-SI
specification for details.
2. NC-SI statistics - These are statistics on the NC-SI control frames (such as commands, responses,
AENs, etc.). See the NC-SI specification for details.
3. NC-SI pass-through statistics - These are statistics on the NC-SI pass-through frames. See the NC-
SI specification for details.
