Dropped received packets – no resources
Shows the number of valid Ethernet packets dropped upon reception. A large num-
ber of dropped valid packets suggests a high load on the bus system. In this case,
try to reduce the utilization by especially reducing the number of broadcast and mul-
ticast telegrams and reducing the IO cycle or the number of PROFINET units in a line
if required.
Bad received packets
Shows the number of faulty Ethernet packets. A high number suggests a bus error.
In this case, check the cabling and shielding of the network.
Received octets
Shows the number of received packets.
