10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch User’s Guide
Parameters in this screen are described in the following table.
Field | Description |
TX Packet Count | The number of packets that have been |
| transmitted successfully by the selected port. |
| Packets are from |
| CRC. |
RX Byte Count | The size, in bytes, of all packets received and |
| forwarded successfully by the selected port. |
RX Packet Count | The number of packets that have been received |
| successfully on the selected port. |
RX Broadcast | The number of broadcast packets that are |
PKT | received. |
RX Multicast | The number of multicast packets that are |
PKT | received. |
RX Reject Count | The number of discarded packets that are |
| received on the selected port. These frames |
| are discarded at the receiving port because of |
| frame filtering. |
RX Drop Event | The number of lost packets received on the |
Count | selected port. Lost packets result from the lack |
| of internal receive buffer space. |
FCS Error Count | The number of packets with cyclic redundancy |
| check (CRC) errors that are received on the |
| selected port. |
Alignment Error | The number of alignment errors received on the |
PKT | selected port. An alignment error occurs when |
| a received packet is not an integral number of |
| bytes. |
Under Size PKT | The number of packets received that were well |
| formed but less than 64 bytes long. |
Over Size PKT | The number of packets received that were well |
| formed but greater than 1,518 bytes long. |
Fragment PKT | The number of packets received that were less |
Count | than 64 bytes long and had either a CRC error |
| or an alignment error. |
