Figure 6-17. Statistics Counters
The statistic counters displayed are defined as follows:
♦ MAC Rx Errors (MAC Received Errors): The number
of frames with received MAC Errors (assertion of RXEr).
♦ CRC Errors: The number of frames with valid packet
length and misalignment (or odd number of nibbles).
♦ Oversize Frames: The number of good frames with
length greater than 1518 bytes and therefore are greater
than the maximum legal length.
♦ Fragments: The number of good frames with length less
than the 64-byte (octet) minimum defined by the Ethernet
standard. These are usually caused by collisions.
♦ Jabber: The number of frames with length more than
1518 bytes and with CRC error or misalignment (bad
framing).
♦ Collisions: The number of collision errors.
♦ Late Collisions: The number of collisions that occur at or
after the 64
th
byte (octet) in the frame.
