Table 6-14. Frame Relay Performance Statistics (2 of 2)

Statistic

What It Indicates

 

 

Frame Relay Errors (cont'd)

 

 

Unknown Error

The number of frames received over the interface that do not

 

fall into one of the other statistic categories.

 

Indicates that the error is not one that the unit can recognize.

 

 

Frame Relay LMI

 

 

 

LMI Protocol

The LMI protocol configured for the frame relay link.

 

Normal condition.

 

 

Status Msg Received

The number of LMI status messages received over the

 

interface.

 

Normal condition.

 

 

Total LMI Errors

The number of LMI errors. Reliability errors, protocol errors,

 

unknown report types, unknown information elements, and

 

sequence errors are included in this total.

 

Network problems.

 

 

Number of Inactives

The number of times the LMI has declared the frame relay link

 

Inactive.

 

Network problems.

 

 

Frame Relay HDLC Errors

 

 

Rx Total Errors

The number of receiver errors on the interface. The following

 

are included in this count:

 

H Receive invalid frames (short frames, long frames, invalid

 

DLCIs, unknown DLCIs, and unknown errors)

 

H Rx Total Discards

 

H Receive errors (non-octet aligned frames, frames with CRC

 

errors, and Rx Overruns)

 

 

Rx Total Discards

The number of receiver discards on the interface. The

 

following are included in this count:

 

H Resource errors

 

H Rx Overruns

 

H Frames received when the link was down

 

H Inactive and disconnected DLCIs

 

H Inactive destination DLCIs

 

H Unknown EDLCIs

 

 

Rx CRC Errors

The number of received CRC (cycle redundancy check) errors.

 

 

Tx Total Errors

The total number of transmit errors on the interface, including

 

transmits discards and transmit overruns.

 

 

Tx Total Discards

The total number of transmit discards on the interface,

 

including underrun flushes.
