Alarms. Possible menu selections are: Enable and
Disable.

Displays the threshold value for the percentage of
errors per good packet that may occur within the
Timebase before generating an error alarm. This

provides a series of buttons that let you select the
types of errors to include in the error sum. The

Runts

A packet that is one byte less than the standard
Ethernet frame of 64 bytes (not including
preamble).

network problem.

Alignment

Misaligned packets detected.

No_Resource

The number of times the module ran out of
resources (i.e., lack of buffer space) and could not
accept packets.

Packets received that exceed 1518 bytes (not
including preamble).

Ethernet Based Configuration

Access:

From the Chassis Icon, select Ethernet Based

This view provides port configuration information

the

Fast Ethernet Configuration View (page 54)

and the shared fields are covered there. The fields
below detail the device specific information found
with this view.

Auto Negotiate Mode

a specific port. If Auto-Negotiation is disabled the
port will revert to the speed, duplex, and flow
