Figure 2-9. The FDDI Statistics Window

The FDDI Statistics window contains the following Þelds:

SMT #

The index number of the SMT entity to which the statistics entries pertain.

Frames/sec

The current bandwidth, expressed in terms of frames per second.

KBytes/sec

The current bandwidth, expressed in terms of kilobytes per second.

Peak KBytes/sec

The most kilobytes per second experienced on the ring associated with the SMT entity since peak FDDI statistics counters were last reset for the device.

You can reset the peak value at any time by clicking .

%Util (100 MBits/sec)

The current percentage of bandwidth utilized on the network in comparison to its theoretical maximum bandwidth (100 Mbps for an FDDI network). This is calculated by using the following formula: (current Kbps*8)/1000.
