Table 4-2. Physical Layer Options (2 of 5)

Ether Statistics (Ethernet Statistics) (continued) B-B-B

Bytes Transmitted – Number of bytes transmitted on the Ethernet port.

Packets Transmitted – Number of packets transmitted by the Ethernet port and what type.

HMulticasts – Single packets copied to a specific subset of network addresses.

HBroadcasts – Messages sent to all network destinations.

HFlooded – Information received, then sent out to each of the interfaces.

HLocal Origin – Locally transmitted packet; e.g. Ping.

HQueued – Packets waiting to be processed.

Errors – Number of errors transmitted by the Ethernet port and what type.

HCollisions:

–M = Multi-collision frames – not counted this release and always set to 0.

–L = Late collisions – collision detected often; at least 64 bytes have been transmitted.

–E = Excessive collisions – port tried to send a packet 15 times without success.

HDeferrals

HCarrier Loss

HUnderflow

HBuffer

Disconnects – Number of fast restarts and what type.

HDisable

HMAU Drop

HXMIT Fail (Cable on floor?)

Fast Restarts – Number of fast restarts and what type.

HRX Off

HTX Off

HMem Err

Endless Pkt – Number of endless packets received on the Ethernet port. Startless Pkt – Number of startless packets received on the Ethernet port. Babble – Number of garbled packets received due to crosstalk.

HDLC Bus Stats (HDLC Bus Statistics) B-B-C

Displays a list of of the HDLC backplane port statistics for the s1b port (backplane), bytes received and transmitted, packets received and transmitted, and errors received and transmitted. (If a high number of errors have been received, the card may have to be reset.)

You may press Ctrl-r at any time to reset counters.

Port – Port name (s1b).

Bytes received – Number of bytes received on the backplane port. Bytes transmitted – Number of bytes transmitted on the backplane port. Packets received – Number of packets received on the backplane port. Packets transmitted – Number of packets transmitted on the backplane port. Errors – Number of other receive errors.

Lost – Number of packets not transmitted due to internal congestion.
