Monitoring Hub Performance

2-9

Using the SEHI100TX Hub View

Port display form options are:

Load

Shows a percentage for each active port that represents that portÕs portion of the
theoretical maximum trafÞc level Ñ for Ethernet interfaces, 10 megabits per
second; for Fast Ethernet interfaces, 100 megabits per second.

Traffic

Displays port trafÞc data in a packets/second format.

Collisions

Displays port trafÞc data in a collisions/second format. The SEHI100TX counts
both receive collisions Ñ those collisions it detects while receiving a transmission
Ñ and transmit collisions Ñ those it detects while transmitting (i.e., a port in the
SEHI100TX-managed stack transmitted one of the colliding packets); however,
those counts are combined and a single total value is displayed.

Errors

Shows port trafÞc errors in an errors/second format. You can display any one of
the following types of errors:

¥

Total errors

¥

Alignment errors

¥

CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) errors

¥

Runts

¥

Giants

¥

OOW (Out-of-Window) Collisions

.

Frame Sizes

Displays a percentage for each active port that represents what portion of that
portÕs trafÞc is of a speciÞc size, measured in bytes. You can display any one of the
following frame sizes:

¥

Runts (packets with fewer than 64 bytes)

¥

64-127

¥

128-255

¥

256-511

¥

512-1023

¥

1024-1518

¥

Giants (packets with more than 1518 bytes)

NOTE

For the statistical port display form options listed above, three dashes (- - -) will display
for all inactive ports; any active (green) port will display a numeric value, even if itÕs
0.0000.
