15.6.2 G-Series Ethernet Card Performance Monitoring Parameters
CTC provides Ethernet performance information, including line-level parameters, port bandwidth
consumption, and historical Ethernet statistics. The G-Series Ethernet performance information is
divided into the Statistics, Utilization, and History tabbed windows within the card view Performance
tab window. The following sections describe PM parameters provided for the G1000-4 and G1K-4
Ethernet cards.
15.6.2.1 G-Series Ethernet Statistics Window
The Ethernet Statistics window lists Ethernet parameters at the line level. The Statistics window provides
buttons to change the statistical values shown. The Baseline button resets the displayed statistics values
to zero. The Refresh button manually refreshes statistics. Auto-Refresh sets a time interval at which
automatic refresh occurs. The G-Series Statistics window also has a Clear button. The Clear button sets
the values on the card to zero, but does not reset the G-Series card.
Table 15-10 defines the G-Series Ethernet card statistics parameters.
Table 15-9 Ethernet Statistics History per Time Interval
Time Interval Number of Intervals Displayed
1 minute 60 previous time intervals
15 minutes 32 previous time intervals
1 hour 24 previous time intervals
1 day (24 hours) 7 previous time intervals

Parameter Meaning
Time Last Cleared A time stamp indicating the last time statistics were reset.
Link Status Indicates whether the Ethernet link is receiving a valid Ethernet signal
(carrier) from the attached Ethernet device; up means present, and down
means not present.
Rx Packets Number of packets received since the last counter reset.
Rx Bytes Number of bytes received since the last counter reset.
Tx Packets Number of packets transmitted since the last counter reset.
Tx Bytes Number of bytes transmitted since the last counter reset.
Rx Total Errors Total number of receive errors.
Rx FCS Number of packets with a FCS error. FCS errors indicate frame
corruption during transmission.
Rx Alignment Number of packets with received incomplete frames.
Rx Runts Measures undersized packets with bad CRC errors.
Rx Shorts Measures undersized packets with good CRC errors.
Rx Jabbers Total number of frames received that exceed the 1548-byte maximum
and contain CRC errors.
