RMON Statistics
This screen is used to view the RMON counters for each port.
Port Selection - Select the port to display the packets statistics.
EtherStatsDropEvents - The total number of events in which packets were dropped by the probe due to lack of
resources. Note that this number is not necessarily the number of packets dropped; it is just the number of times
this condition has been detected.
EtherStatsOctets - The total number of octets(bytes) of data (including those in bad packets) received on the
network (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets). This object can be used as a reasonable estimate of
ethernet utilization.
EtherStatsPkts - The total number of packets (including bad packets, broadcast packets, and multicast packets)
received.
EtherStatsBroadcastPkts - The total number of good packets received that were directed to the broadcast
address. Note that this does not include multicast packets.
EtherStatsMulticastPkts - The total number of good packets received that were directed to a multicast address.
Note that this number does not include packets directed to the broadcast address.
EtherStatsCRCAlignErrors - The total number of packets received that had a length (excluding framing bits, but
including FCS octets) of between 64 and 1518 octets, inclusive, but but had either a bad Frame Check Sequence
(FCS) with an integral number of octets (FCS Error) or a bad FCS with a non-integral number of octets (Alignment
Error).
EtherStatsUndersizePkts - The total number of packets received that were less than 64 octets long (excluding
framing bits, but including FCS octets) and were otherwise well formed.
EtherStatsOversizePkts - The total number of packets received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding
framing bits, but including FCS octets) and were otherwise well formed.
EtherStatsFragments -The total number of packets received that were less than 64 octets in length (excluding
framing bits but including FCS octets) and had either a bad Frame Check Sequence (FCS) with an integral number
of octets (FCS Error) or a bad FCS with a non-integral number of octets (Alignment Error). Note that it is entirely
normal for etherStatsFragments to increment. This is because it counts both runts (which are normal
occurrences due to collisions) and noise hits.
EtherStatsJabbers - The total number of packets received that were longer than 1518 octets (excluding framing
bits, but including FCS octets), and had either a bad Frame Check Sequence (FCS) with an integral number of
