9-6 Reference Guide

General Statistics displays information about data traffic on the Netopia Router’s PhoneNet and Ethernet ports. This information is useful for monitoring and troubleshooting your LAN.

The left side of the screen lists total packets received and total packets transmitted for the following protocols:

IP (IP packets on the Ethernet)

IPX (IPX packets on the Ethernet)

ET II (AppleTalk packets on Ethernet, using EtherTalk Phase II)

LT (LocalTalk on the PhoneNET)

The right side of the table lists the total number of occurrences of each of five types of communication statistics:

EN Rx Packets: The number of Ethernet packets received.

EN Rx Errors: The number of bad Ethernet packets received.

EN Collisions: An error occurring when Ethernet packets are transmitted simultaneously by nodes on the LAN.

ISDN only FEBE/NEBE Errors: The number of bad FEBE/NEBE packet errors. FEBE (Far End Bit Errors) is a counter of bad packets coming from the ISDN switch to the Router. NEBE (Near End Bit Errors) is a counter of bad packets coming from the Router to the ISDN switch.

LT Bad Pkts: An error occurring when unacceptable LocalTalk packets are received by the Netopia Router.
