reasons

inErrors

Frames received at the port but discarded due to errors

inUnknown

Frames received at the port but discarded due to

 

unknown protocols

outDiscards

LANE Component

The LANE Component Statistics allow you to measure the performance of

Statistics

LAN Emulation Services and LAN Emulation Clients in the network.

 

You can display statistics for the following LAN Emulation Services:

 

LES

 

LEC

 

LANE User

LES Performance

The LES performance statistics see Figure 7-13, allow you to see the type

 

of load that exists on the LAN Emulation Services and to use this

 

information for load balancing when required.

The LES Performance Statistics are as follows:

Data History graph of transmission rate of Broadcast and Unknown data (BUS) in Emulated LAN.

Data Utilization Utilization of the transmission rate of the BUS service relative to the maximum possible.

Control Frames Pie graph of quality of LE ARPs and other LAN

Emulation control frames handled by LES.

Errored Control Frames Pie graph of errored control frames.
