Route Unknown

The route to the destination network indicated in a transmit IPX packet was not known. This
counter applies to packets received from the external (direct connect) IPX network (if the
network became inaccessible before the packet could be routed), or the internal IPX network.

No IPX Rx Buffer

No internal buffer was available to receive an IPX packet. Also see the Consecutive No
Buffers field.

No RIP Tx Buffer

No internal buffer was available to transmit a RIP broadcast or response packet. Also see the
Consecutive No Buffers field.

No SAP Tx Buffer

No internal buffer was available to transmit a SAP broadcast or response packet. Also see the
Consecutive No Buffers field.

Checksum Packet

An IPX packet was received that did not have the default 0xFFFF checksum, and the packet
could not be routed, because the only path available was via Ethernet 802.3. The Ethernet
802.3 protocol only supports an IPX Checksum value of 0xFFFF (LAN drivers identify
Ethernet 802.3 IPX packets by the Checksum field).

Socket Unknown

A IPX packet was received for an Unknown Socket on this LAN board.

Rx Packet too Small

The received IPX packet was to small (incomplete IPX header)

Rx or Tx Packet too Large

The packet was too large (exceeded the Packet Size specified on the IPX Options panel).
Either the IPX Packet Size option must be increased to support a larger packet size or the
IPX packet source (Client, Server, or Router) must be configured for a packet size less than
or equal to that defined on the IPX Options configuration panel.

TC (HOPs) Overflow

IPX Packet has traversed 16 decimal or more routers.

Last Packet Discarded Cause

This field indicates why the last IPX packet was discarded. The indicator will show No
Packets Discarded or one of the causes listed under the Packets Discarded Summary Counters.

Packet Size

This field indicates the IPX Packet size of the last packet discarded (if applicable).

Receive Line, Network, Node

These fields indicate the LAN Board Line, Network, and Node the IPX packet was received
from.

Source Network, Node, Socket

These fields indicate the Source Network, Node, and Socket extracted from the IPX packet.
