Collision
When COLLISION is the menu item in the Message Zone, the Port Number
will be illuminated for each port that is connected and the bar gauges
continuously move up or down indicating the percentage of Collision for
these ports. A collision occurs when a port, in half-duplex mode, attempts to
send and receive packets at the same time. The Collision percent can be
calculated with the following formula.
Collision Ratio = (number of packets collided / number of packets
transmitted) * 100.
Press Next in the MAIN MENU to select COLLISION.
