7.5.45 TX_MAC Excessive Collision Counter7.5.46 TX_MAC Late Collision Counter
This eight-bit loadable counter increments for every transmit frame that has
experienced a late collision. It indicates the number of frames that the
TX_MAC has given up transmitting due to collisions that occurred after the
TxMinFrameSize number of bytes have already been transmitted. Usually
this is an indication that there is at least one station on the network that vio-
lates the maximum span of the network.
