2-12 Viewing Chassis Information
Errors
If you choose the E
rrors mode, the interface boxes will display the percentage of
the total number of valid packets processed by each port during the last polling
interval that were error packets. This percentage reflects the number of errors
generated during the last polling interval by devices connected to that port
compared to the total number of valid packets processed by the port.
I/F M
apping
If you choose the I/F M
apping mode, the interface boxes will display the interface
number (ifIndex) associated with each port in the SmartSwitch 2000.
I/F Sp
eed
If you choose the I/F Sp
eed mode, the interface boxes will display the bandwidth
of each individual port on the SmartSwitch 2000: 10M (megabits) for standard
Ethernet; 100M for Fast Ethernet, 155.5 M for ATM; and 1.00 G for Gigabit
Ethernet.
I/F T
ype
If you choose the I/F T
ype mode, the interface boxes will display the interface
type of each port on the SmartSwitch 2000, e.g., Eth (ethernet-csmacd), ATM, or
FDDI. Note that there is no type distinction between standard Ethernet, Fast
Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet.
Port status view options for an Ethernet MicroLAN Switch are:
Load
If you choose L
oad, the port text boxes will display the percentage of network
load processed by each port during the last polling interval. This percentage
reflects the network load generated by devices connected to the port compared to
the theoretical maximum load (10, 100, 155.5, or 1000 Mbps) of the connected
network.
Status
You can view three status categories for your ports which reflect six possible
Admin/Link, Admin, or Link S
tatus conditions:
• A
dmin/Link — ON, OFF, SEG (segmented), or NLK (not linked)
• Ad
