Frame Relay Performance Statistics

The following statistics appear when Frame Relay is selected from the

Performance Statistics menu.

Main Menu Status Performance Statistics Frame Relay

All counts continue to increment until the maximum value is reached (232 ±2), then the count starts over. The NextLink and PrevLink function keys only appear when multiple frame relay links have been configured.

Statistic

What It Indicates

 

 

Frame Relay Link

 

 

 

Frames Sent

The number of frames sent over the interface.

 

 

Frames Received

The number of frames received over the interface.

 

 

Characters Sent

The number of data octets (bytes) sent over the interface.

 

 

Characters Received

The number of data octets (bytes) received over the interface.

 

 

FECNs Received

The number of forward explicit congestion notifications

 

received over the interface.

 

The network sends FECNs to notify users of data traffic

 

congestion in the same direction of the frame carrying the

 

FECN indicator.

 

 

BECNs Received

The number of backward explicit congestion notifications

 

received over the interface.

 

The network sends BECNs to notify users of data traffic

 

congestion in the opposite direction of the frame carrying the

 

BECN indicator.

 

 

Frame Relay Errors

 

 

 

Total Errors

The number of total frame relay errors, excluding LMI errors.

 

Short frames, long frames, invalid DLCIs, unknown DLCIs, and

 

unknown errors are included in this total.

 

Indicates that there may be a non-frame relay device on the

 

other end of the link, or the units at either the far end or both

 

ends of the link may be configured incorrectly.

 

 

Invalid Rx Frames

The number of invalid frames received over the Network or

 

Port-1 interface.

 

There is a non-frame relay device on the other end of the link.
