FDDI Performance Window

The FDDI Performance window, Figure 3-5, provides graphical and numeric performance statistics for the FDDI BRIM, including transmit frames, receive frames, frame errors, lost frames, and ring ops.

Figure 3-5. The FDDI Performance Window

The FDDI Performance window displays performance data in three formats:

¥Count the number detected of each performance type for the selected interval.

¥RateÑ# per second the number of each performance type per second, as averaged over the selected interval.

¥GraphicallyÑ0% - 50% - 100% the percentage of each performance type with respect to the total network load processed by the FDDI BRIM during the last interval (e.g., a transmit frames rate of 75% during a delta interval indicates that of all frames processed by the selected interface, 75% were transmitted by that interface).

The FDDI Performance window displays performance data in the following Þelds:

Transmit Frames

The number of frames transmitted by the FDDI BRIMÕs MAC during the selected interval.

Receive Frames

The number of frames received by the FDDI BRIMÕs MAC during the selected interval.
