Figure 43. Transmit Section
•“Total Packet” – reports the total number of packets transmitted.
•“Unicast Packet” – reports the number of packets transmitted by the adapter that were destined for a single network node.
•“Multicast Packet” – reports the number of packets transmitted by the adapter that were destined for more than one network node.
•“Single Retries” – reports the number of packets that require one retry before the adapter received an acknowledgement.
After the adapter sends a packet, it waits for an acknowledgement from the receiving radio to confirm that the packet was successfully received. If the acknowledgement is not received within a specified period of time, the adapter retransmits the packet.
•“Multiple Retries” – reports the number of packets that require more than one retry before the adapter received an acknowledgement.
•“Failed Count” – reports the number of packets that were not successfully transmitted because the adapter did not receive an acknowledgement within the specified period of time.
•“RTS Success” – reports the number of RTS attempts that were successful.
•“RTS Failure” – reports the number of RTS attempts that were not successful.
•“ACK Error” – reports the number of unicast transmit attempts for which no acknowledge- ment was received.
Receive SectionThe “Receive” section shows the information on the packets received.
