Module Statistics

The Module Statistics screen is illustrated below. All the fields are read
only. The statistics collected are those specified in the IEEE 802.3
Repeater Management supplement, plus some additions specific to the
MSH. The screen is updated every 3 seconds. The displayed values can
be set to zero using the CLEAR COUNTERS button at the foot of the
screen. This action does not affect the value of the counter. If the top
limit of a counter is reached, the counter will 'roll-over' (reset
automatically). After this event, the individual figures may give a false
impression of network conditions if taken in isolation.

The RESET COUNTER button will only be available to users with access
levels of 3, 4 or 5. Reset Counters resets the all the hardware counters to
zero and should be used with caution. Using this button may affect
remote statistics gathering activity.
