SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway Administration Guide
The rest of the display is a table of Ethernet statistics. The Pkts and
UserPkts columns list the count of Ethernet packets received or
transmitted. The
Bytes column is the count of bytes received or
transmitted during the amount of time indicated by
Stats Time.
Data is transmitted over the SpectraLink 8000 System by
proprietary technology developed by Polycom Corporation. The
SpectraLink Radio Protocol (SRP) packets and bytes can be
differentiated from other types of transmissions and are used to
evaluate system functioning by Polycom customer support and
engineering personnel.
RX SRP: Indicates the number of SRP (SpectraLink Radio Protocol)
packets and bytes received. (RX=“received”)
RX Not SRP: Number of packets and bytes received addressed to the
SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway that are not SRP packets.
RX Broadcast: The number of broadcast packets and bytes received.
RX Multicast: The number of packets and bytes received with the
multicast address. (A “multicast” message is sent to more than one
destination on the network.)
RX Not For Us: The number of multicast packets and bytes received
that were not for the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway.
TX SRP: The number of SRP packets and bytes transmitted.
(TX=“transmitted”)
TX Not SRP: The total number of packets and bytes transmitted that are
not SRP packets.
Interrupts: The number of times the Ethernet controller has signaled
the microprocessor that it has received or sent a packet.
Collisions: The number of times the Ethernet controller has attempted
to send a packet, but another device on the network transmitted at the
same time, corrupting the transmission.
Collision Drops: The number of packets the Ethernet controller has
discarded because there were over sixteen collisions. After sixteen
collisions the Ethernet controller hardware discards the current
packet and attempts to send the next packet in its buffer.
CRC Errors: The number of packets discarded by the Ethernet
controller because of a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) error.
Frame Align: The number of packets the Ethernet controller discarded
because of an error in their frame alignment.
