Monitoring Statistics

7-7

3.

Refer to the

Received

field to view data received over the AP-5131 LAN port.

4.

Refer to the

Transmitted

field to view statistics transmitted over the AP-5131 LAN port.

Network Mask

The first two sets of numbers specify the network domain, the next
set specifies the subset of hosts within a larger network. These
values help divide a network into subnetworks and simplify routing
and data transmission.

Ethernet Address

The Media Access Control (MAC) address of the

AP-5131

. The

MAC address is hard coded at the factory and cannot be changed.

WLANs Connected

The

WLANs Connected

table lists the WLANs using this LAN

(Either LAN1 or LAN2) as their LAN interface.

RX Packets

RX packets are data packets received over the

AP-5131

LAN port.

The number is a cumulative total since the LAN connection was
last enabled or the

AP-5131

was last restarted. To begin a new

data collection, see

Configuring System Settings on page 4-2

.

RX Bytes

RX bytes are bytes of information received over the LAN port. The
value is a cumulative total since the LAN connection was last
enabled or the

AP-5131

was last restarted. To begin a new data

collection, see

Configuring System Settings on page 4-2

.

RX Errors

RX errors include dropped data packets, buffer overruns, and frame
errors on inbound traffic. The number of RX errors is a total of RX
Dropped
, RX Overruns and RX Carrier errors. Use this information
to determine performance quality of the current LAN connection.

RX Dropped

The

RX Dropped

field displays the number of data packets failing

to reach the LAN port. If this number appears excessive, consider a
new connection to the device.

RX Overruns

RX overruns are buffer overruns on the

AP-5131

LAN port. RX

overruns occur when packets are received faster than the LAN
connection can handle them. If RX overruns are excessive, consider
reducing the data rate, for more information, see

Configuring the

802.11a or 802.11b/g Radio on page 5-48

.

RX Frame

The

RX Frame

field displays the number of TCP/IP data frame

errors received.
