Information — Wireless Tallies

The Wireless Tallies panelgives statistics on the operation of the Wireless Gateway's wireless access point. These statistics help you check wireless activity levels and monitor the health of the wireless segment.

Figures are given for several kinds of transmitted (Tx) and received (Rx) frames. (“Frame,” in this context, can be interpreted to mean “packet”).

Unicast frames are packets addressed to a single machine.

Multicast frames are packets addressed to more than one machine. Packets addressed to all machines on the network, often called broadcast packets, are included in these tallies.

Tx Errors is the number of packets transmitted erroneously.

Rx FCS Errors is the number of packets received from wireless stations and found to have Frame Check Sequence errors. The FCS is a value computed by the sender on the basis of packet contents and then sent at the end of the packet. The Wireless Gateway does the same calculation and compares the result with the value received. A packet with an FCS error is silently dropped; the sender, receiving no acknowledgement, automatically tries again. An abnormally large number of FCS errors usually indicates radio-frequency interference or a faulty transmitter.
