Partitions
❏ When a hub partitions a sta-
tion that is attached to a
port, it isolates the station
from the rest of the net-
work. Partitions indicate
that the connected stations
are creating too many colli-
sions or excessively long
collisions.
❏ This is normally caused by a
faulty network card.
❏ Disable the port and replace
the network card in the con-
nected station.
Field/Definition
Good Frames (Known as Readable Frames)
❏ Counts the number of valid frames detected by the hub.
❏ A valid frame is from 64 to 1518 bytes in length, has a valid CRC and is
received without collision.
❏ The counter is a 32-bit register with minimum rollover time (time for
which the register will count without stopping).
Total Octets (Known as Readable Octets)
❏ The total number of bytes (octets) contained in the valid frames that
have been received on the ports in the hub.
❏ Use this statistic as an indicator of the total data transferred.
Bad Frames
❏ Composed of FCS, alignment errors, frame too long, short event, late
event, MJLP and DRM.
