Total Errors

selected interface.

Broadcast/Multicast

that is, broadcast or multicast — packets received by the selected interface.

Port Number

Provides a sequential indexing of the interfaces installed in your RMON device.

TIP

The three pre-selected alarm variables are all MIB II variables; this allows you to configure
alarms for any installed interface — even those for which no specific RMON statistics
exist.
