Description
The number of packets dropped due to waiting too
long for a bus to become available.
The number of unknown packet types if Ethernet
IP encapsulation is being used. The number of
packets with illegal lengths if IEEE 802.2/802.3 IP
encapsulation is being used.
The number of frames sent.
The number of times packets could not be
transmitted because the Remote Annex 6300 lost
the Carrier Sense signal – usually the result of
excessive traffic on the Ethernet.
The number of times packets could not be
transmitted because the Remote Annex 6300 lost
the Clear to Send signal – usually the result of
excessive traffic.
The number of times the Remote Annex 6300 had
to retry transmissions automatically – usually the
result of normal Ethernet traffic. These retries do
not cause the boot command to display ''*."
The number of times the Remote Annex 6300
could not transmit packets because there were too
many collisions – usually the result of excessive
traffic on the Ethernet. The boot command
displays these retries as "*."
