CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER
ISDN Statistics
ISDN Statistics appears under the Statistics Tab for the properties
for a router.
This part of the Statistics dialog box provides information on the
status of data currently being sent or received from the ISDN line.
If no data is being transferred, then zero values will be indicated
for all communication parameters. Because ISDN data transfers
generally involve some degree of error handling, it is not
uncommon to see some errors reported. However, if a high level
of errors are reported or if the count is increasing continuously
without stopping, you may want to try hanging up and calling
again. This is also true if the rate of data transfer is much lower
than expected. Sometimes a data transfer problem can be as
simple as a bad connection in the phone switch. So calling again is
always a good option.
The following categories apply to both Transmit and Receive
parameters.
Bytes/Second represents the number of bytes transferred each
second over the ISDN line.
Bytes/Second Trend represents a time-average bytes per second
transferred over the ISDN line. The formula is ([bytes this sec] +
[bytes last sec])/2.
Packets/Second represents the number of packets transferred each
second over the ISDN line.
Packets/Second Trend represents the average packets per second
transferred over the ISDN line.
