Bad Types/
Lengths
The number of unknown packet types if Ethernet IP
encapsulation is being used. The number of packets
with illegal lengths if IEEE 802.2/802.3 IP
encapsulation is being used.
Frames Sent The number of frames sent.
Carrier Sense
Losses
The number of times packets could not be transmitted
because the CSMIM-T1 lost the Carrier Sense signal –
usually the result of excessive traffic on the Ethernet.
Clear to Send
Losses
The number of times packets could not be transmitted
because the CSMIM-T1 lost the Clear to Send signal –
usually the result of excessive traffic.
Collisions Detected
The number of times the CSMIM-T1 had to retry
transmissions automatically – usually the result of
normal Ethernet traffic. These retries do not cause the
boot command to display ‘‘*.”
Excessive Collision
Losses
The number of times the CSMIM-T1 could not transmit
packets because there were too many collisions –
usually the result of excessive traffic on the Ethernet.
The boot command displays these retries as “*.”
