Bridge Statistics 2-27
Bridging
¥Total ErrorsÑThe Total Errors Þeld displays the total number of errors of all
types: Bad Addresses, Bad Controls, Packets Too Long, and Bad FCSs.
Statistics
Lists statistics Þelds which are related to the PPP Link at the selected bridging
interface. Possible statistics Þelds are:
¥Local MRUÑThe Local MRU Þeld displays the current value of the MRU
(Maximum Receive Unit) for the local PPP entity. This value is the MRU that
the remote entity uses when sending packets to the local PPP entity. The MRU
is the maximum length of data information (included ÒpaddedÓ data octets,
but excluding the Protocol Þeld which identiÞes the datagramÕs protocol type)
that can be received by this interface. The default MRU size is 1500 octets. The
auto-negotiation process may establish another value for MRU if consent is
given at both ends of the PPP link (if either the local or remote PPP entity
informs the other that larger packets can be sent, or requests that smaller
packets be sent).
¥Remote MRUÑThe Remote MRU Þeld displays the current value of the MRU
(Maximum Receive Unit) established for the remote interface at the other end
of the PPP Link. This value is the MRU that the local entity uses when sending
packets to the remote PPP entity.
¥Local to Peer ACC MapÑThe Local to Peer ACC Map Þeld displays the
current value of the Asynchronous Control Character (ACC) Map used for
sending packets from the local PPP entity to the remote PPP entity. In effect,
this is the ACC Map that is required to ensure that all characters can be
successfully transmitted through the local modem. The actual ACC Map used
on the transmit side of the link will be a combination of the local nodeÕs
pppLinkConÞgTransmitACCMap and the remote nodeÕs
pppLinkConÞgReceiveACCMap.
¥Peer to Local ACC MapÑThe Peer to Local ACC Map Þeld displays the
Asynchronous Control Character (ACC) Map used by the remote PPP entity
when transmitting packets to the local PPP entity. In effect, this is the ACC
Map that is required to ensure that the local modem will successfully receive
all characters. The actual ACC Map used on the receive side of the link will be
a combination of the local nodeÕs pppLinkConÞgReceiveACCMap and the remote
nodeÕs pppLinkConÞgTransmitACCMap.
¥Local to Remote Protocol CompressionÑThe Local to Remote Protocol
Compression Þeld determines whether or not the local PPP entity uses
Protocol Compression when transmitting packets to the remote PPP entity.
¥Remote to Local Protocol CompressionÑThe Remote to Local Protocol
Compression Þeld determines whether or not the remote PPP entity uses
Protocol Compression when transmitting packets to the local PPP entity.
¥Local to Remote AC CompressionÑThe Local to Remote AC Compression
Þeld determines whether or not the local PPP entity uses Address and Control
(AC) Compression when transmitting packets to the remote PPP entity.
