103Com Management Programs

Broadcast Frames Rx—Count of frames that are successfully received and are directed to the broadcast group address. This does not include frames received with frame- too-long, FCS, length or alignment errors, or frames lost due to internal MAC sublayer error. This counter is incremented as indicated by the receiveOK status, and the value in the Destination field.

IEEE 802.3

Interface components of the Statistics/IEEE 802.3 window are described below:

Frames Rx with Alignment Error—Count of frames that are not an integral number of octets in length and do not pass the FCS check. This counter is incremented when the ReceiveStatus is reported as alignmentError.

Frames Tx with one Collision—Count of frames that are involved in a single collision, and are subsequently transmitted successfully. This counter is incremented when the result of a transmission is reported as transmitOK and the attempt value is 2.

Frames Tx with more than one Collision—Count of frames that are involved in more than one collision, and are subsequently transmitted successfully. This counter is incremented when the TransmitStatus is reported as transmitOK and the value of the attempts variable is greater than 2 and less than (or equal to) attemptLimit.

Frames Tx after Deferral—Count of frames whose transmission was delayed on its first attempt because the medium was busy. Frames involved in any collision are not counted.
