Client Adapter Transmit Statistics
Description
The number of multicast packets that were transmitted
successfully.
The number of broadcast packets that were transmitted
successfully.
The number of unicast packets that were transmitted successfully.
The number of bytes of data that were transmitted successfully.
The number of beacon packets that were transmitted successfully
(in ad hoc mode only).
The number of acknowledgment (Ack) packets that were
transmitted in response to successfully received unicast packets.
The number of request-to-send (RTS) packets that were
transmitted successfully.
The number of clear-to-send (CTS) packets that were transmitted
in response to a successfully received RTS packet.
The number of packets that had to be retransmitted once due to a
collision.
The number of packets that had to be retransmitted more than once
due to additional collisions.
The number of packets that were able to be transmitted
immediately without being delayed due to energy detect or
protocol deferral.
The number of packets that were delayed due to 802.11 protocol
reasons (such as not enough time left to send the packet).
The number of packets that were delayed because RF energy was
already detected. This condition is usually caused by another radio
transmitting a packet or by some other RF source jamming the
signal (such as a microwave oven).
The number of normal data packets that were retransmitted.
The number of RTS packets that were retransmitted.
The number of packets that failed to be transmitted successfully
after exhausting the maximum number of retries.
The number of transmitted packets that had their corresponding
Ack packet received successfully.
The number of transmitted packets that did not have their
corresponding Ack packet received successfully.
The number of CTS packets that were received in response to an
RTS packet.
The number of packets for which no CTS packet was received in
response to an RTS packet.
