Late Collision
This field displays how many late collisions occurred on the Ethernet
controller. A normal collision occurs during the first 512 bits of the
frame transmission. A collision that occurs after the first 512 bits is
considered a late collision.
IMPORTANT!
A late collision is a serious network problem
because the frame being transmitted is
discarded. A late collision is most commonly
caused by a mismatch between duplex
configurations at the ends of a link segment.
RetransLimitExp
This field displays how many times the retransmit limit has expired.
TxUnderrun
This field displays how many transmission-underrun errors occurred
on the Ethernet controller.
CarSenseLost
This field displays how many carrier sense lost errors occurred on the
Ethernet controller.
No Carrier
This field displays how many no carrier errors occurred on the
Ethernet controller.
