Data Rate Mismatch: A condition that occurs when a packet's
transmission frequency (data rate) does not match the local transmit
frequency.
FCS Error: A Frame Check Sequence error occurs when a packet is
involved in a collision or is corrupted by noise.
Frames Too Long: Frames that are longer than the maximum length of
a proper Ethernet frame, but not as long as frames resulting from
jabbering.
Readable Frames: The number of frames received without error.
Readable Octets: The number of octets (bytes) received without error.
Runt Frame: A small packet received with FCS or alignment errors.
Runt frames are the result of collisions occurring on a connected
segment or among stations connected to attached repeaters.
Short Event: A carrier event that occurs when the activity duration is
less than the ShortEventMaxTime (84 bits).
Very Long Event: A condition that occurs when the repeater is forced
to go into a jabber protection mode because of an excessive number of
times a port receives a packet.
SUM
Smart Uplink Module. A SUM allows the 2524/2624 or 3512/3612
repeater to overcome normal repeater hop limitations. It does so by
using a minimal latency buffer to isolate collisions to each repeater in a
collision domain.
TCP/IP
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. TCP/IP is a widely
used data transmission protocol developed by the Advanced Research
Projects Agency (ARPA). The TCP controls the transfer of data and the
IP provides a method for routing the data.
