Refer to the

Transmitted

field to view statistics transmitted over the access point LAN port.

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 access point 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 5-55

.

RX Frame

The

RX Frame

field displays the number of TCP/IP data frame

errors received.

TX Packets

TX packets are data packets sent over the access point LAN port.
The displayed number is a cumulative total since the LAN
connection was last enabled or the access point was last restarted.
To begin a new data collection, see

Configuring System Settings on

page 4-2

.

TX Bytes

TX bytes are bytes of information sent over the LAN port. The
displayed number is a cumulative total since the LAN Connection
was last enabled or the access point was last restarted. To begin a
new data collection, see

Configuring System Settings on page 4-2

.

TX Errors

TX errors include dropped data packets, buffer overruns, and carrier
errors on outbound traffic. The displayed number of TX errors is a
total of TX Dropped, TX Overruns and TX Carrier errors. Use this
information to re-assess AP location and transmit speed.

TX Dropped

The

TX Dropped

field displays the number of data packets that fail

to get sent from the access point LAN port.

TX Overruns

TX overruns are buffer overruns on the LAN port. TX overruns occur
when packets are sent faster than the LAN connection can handle.
If TX overruns are excessive, consider reducing the data rate, for
more information, see

Configuring the 802.11a or 802.11b/g Radio

on page 5-55
