Excessive collisions

56-59

Frames for which a transmission fails due to excessive collisions

 

 

 

Excessive deferrals

60-63

Frames for which transmission is deferred for an excessive period of time

 

 

 

Alignment errors

Single collisions

72-75

Successfully transmitted frames for which transmission was delayed because of collision.

 

 

 

Multiple collisions

76-79

Successfully transmitted frames for which transmission was delayed more than once because of

 

 

collision.

 

 

 

Deferred transmission

80-83

Frames for which the first transmission attempt is delayed because the medium is busy

Multiple collisions

88-89

Network storms encountered

 

 

 

Ethernet Address
