Port Errors

The Switch 3800 keeps track of errors for each port.

To view port error, type

show port errors

The following port error information is collected by the Switch:

Link Status — The current status of the link. Options are:

Ready — The port is ready to accept a link.

Active — The link is present at this port.

Transmit Collisions (TX Coll) — The total number of collisions seen
by the port, regardless of whether a device connected to the port
participated in any of the collisions. This value will always be zero for a
full-duplex device

Transmit Late Collisions (TX Late) — The total number of collisions
that have occurred after the port’s transmit window has expired. This
value will always be zero for a full-duplex device.

Transmit Deferred Frames (TX Def) — The total number of frames
that were transmitted by the port after the first transmission attempt
was deferred by other network traffic.

Transmit Frames Lost (TX Lost) — The total number of frames that
were not completely transmitted by the port.

Transmit Errored Frames (TX Err) — The total number of frames that
were not completely transmitted by the port due to network errors,
such as late collisions or excessive collisions.

Receive Bad CRC Frames (RX CRC) — The total number of frames
received by the port that were of the correct length, but contained a
bad FCS value.

Receive Oversize Frames (RX Over) — The total number of good
frames received by the port that were of longer than the supported
maximum length of 1522 bytes.

Receive Undersize Frames (RX Under) — The total number of
frames received by the port that were less than 64 bytes long.
