FCS regardless if the frame matches or not the traffic flows and filters, and
regardless if the traffic flow was ignored due to the limit reached (see
on page 419). The rate is expressed either in
Line Utilization
or
Ethernet Bandwidth
(see
).
Rate Layer
Allows the selection of the rate unit used for
Link Rate
and
Rate
statistics.
Line Utilization
is used to express the real line rate including the
Preamble, SFD, and IFG.
Ethernet BW
(Bandwidth) is used to express the Ethernet bandwidth
rate excluding the Preamble, SFD, and IFG.
