WAN Load by DLCI

Chapter 5 Using Observer with a WAN Probe
Description
Data Link Connection Identifier of the statistics that follow. For encapsulations
that do not use DLCI (such as X.25), the correct address value is shown even
though it is still labeled DLCI.
The maximum bit rate sensed so far from the DCE side of this DLCI, in Kbits per
second.
The maximum bit rate sensed so far from the DTE side of this DLCI, in Kbits per
second.
The average bit rate sensed on the DCE side of this DLCI, in Kbits per second.
The average bit rate sensed on the DTE side of this DLCI, in Kbits per second.
The number of packets seen on the DCE side of the link that had the Forward
Explicit Congestion Notification bit set, even though the bandwidth usage was
within the Committed Information Rate (CIR). Normally this number should be
zero. If bandwidth usage exceeds CIR, congestion is expected.
The number of packets seen on the DTE side of the link that had the Forward
Explicit Congestion Notification bit set, even though the bandwidth usage was
within the Committed Information Rate (CIR). Normally this number should be
zero. If bandwidth usage exceeds CIR, congestion is expected.
The number of packets seen on the DCE side of the link that had the Backward
Explicit Congestion Notification bit set, even though the bandwidth usage was
within the Committed Information Rate (CIR). Normally this number should be
zero. If bandwidth usage exceeds CIR, congestion is expected.
The number of packets seen on the DTE side of the link that had the Backward
Explicit Congestion Notification bit set, even though the bandwidth usage was
within the Committed Information Rate (CIR). Normally this number should be
zero. If bandwidth usage exceeds CIR, congestion is expected.
In a WAN installation, Observer's Network Activity Display is called
WAN Load by DLCI. This mode shows critical WAN transfer rate and
congestion statistics in a number of formats. This display can show
you the health of a WAN link at a glance and can warn of impending
slowdowns due to congestion or other error conditions.
