ADTRAN 6000 Series system manual Ethernet Switch Status RX Packets Dropped

Section 5 User Interface Guide TRACER 6000 Series Integrated System Manual

>ETHERNET SWITCH STATUS > RX PACKETS

Displays a counter of all data packets received on the local and remote TRACER 64x0 Ethernet interfaces and WAN (RF link). Use this data as an indicator of how many packets are being received on the four Ethernet interfaces versus being received over the wireless link.

>ETHERNET SWITCH STATUS > RX PACKETS DROPPED

Displays a counter of all received data packets that were unable to be processed due to congestion inside the TRACER 64x0 switch (for both the local and remote TRACER 64x0 units). Use this data as an indicator of congestion inside the TRACER 64x0 switch.

>ETHERNET SWITCH STATUS > RX PACKET ERRORS

Displays a counter of all received data packets that are greater than or equal to 64 bytes in length and have either an FCS error or an alignment error (for both the local and remote TRACER 64x0 units). RX PACKET ERRORS on the WAN interface (RF link) could indicate link degradation (due to interference, fading, etc.).

If the RF link goes down, some packet errors may display. Once the TRACER 64x0 system recognizes the link is down (an active RF Low alarm), packet errors will NOT increment.
