WAN Statistics
The WS 2000 Network Management System provides a set of screens that allow the administrator to view real-time
statistics for monitoring the switch’s activity. One of those screens displays statistics for the Wide Area Network (WAN)
port. Selecting Status & Statistics --> WAN Stats displays the following screen.
The Information portion of the WAN Stats screen displays general information about the WAN. Much of this information
is generated from settings on the WAN screen in the Network Configuration area.
• The Status field displays “Enabled” if the WAN interface is currently enabled on the WAN screen (Network
Configuration --> WAN). If the WAN interface is disabled on the WAN screen, the WAN Stats screen does not display
connection information and statistics.
• The HW address is the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the switch’s WAN port, which is set at the factory.
• The Mask field displays the subnet mask number for the switch’s WAN connection. This number is set on the WAN
screen.
• The Link field displays “Up” if the WAN connection is active, and “Down” if the WAN connection is interrupted or lost.
• The WAN connection speed is displayed in Megabits per second (Mbps), for example, 100 Mbps.
• The IP addresses displayed here for the WAN connection are set on the WAN screen (Network Configuration -->
WAN).
The Received and Transmitted portions of the screen display statistics for the cumulative packets, bytes, and errors received
and transmitted through the WAN interface, since the WAN was last enabled or the switch was last rebooted.
Received Field Description
RX Packets The total number of data packets received over the WAN connection
RX Bytes The total number of bytes of information received over the WAN connection
