10BASE-T Stackable Hubs
are too long, and you have either exceeded the repeater count or cable
length specified in the Ethernet standard.
♦
Runt Frame:
counts frames shorter than the 64-byte (octet) minimum
defined by the Ethernet standard. These are usually caused by
collisions.
♦
Collision:
counts collisions on the Ethernet segment.
♦
FCS Error:
counts otherwise valid frames that fail the CRC check.
♦
Alignment Error:
counts otherwise valid frames that did not end on a
byte (octet) boundary
♦
Interframe Gap:
counts frames sent too close behind the previous
frame; a minimum of 8
±
1 microseconds of carrier is required between
frames.
♦
Jabber:
counts frames longer than the maximum 1518 bytes (octets)
with either bad framing or an invalid CRC.
♦
Auto Partition:
counts events where the port was partitioned off from
the rest of the network due to excessive errors.
♦
Fragment:
counts packets less than 64 bytes with either bad framing
or an invalid CRC. These are normally the result of collisions.
♦
DRM (Data Rate Mismatch):
counts events where there is a
frequency mismatch between the received signal and the hub’s
internal clock. This may indicate a hardware problem in the hub or in
an Ethernet interface.
♦
SFD Missing:
counts frames longer than 10 bytes without a valid
Start of Frame Delimiter.
♦
Readable Frame:
counts valid frames.
♦
Multicast Frame:
counts valid frames that are sent to multicast
Ethernet addresses.
