Monitor Interfaces

View statistical information on ports with a network connection. Typically, the interface is Ether1, Ether0, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), or Frame Relay.

Select a modem and use the Reset Counters button to restart incrementing values in PMVision only, not on the PortMaster. Use Restore Counters to restore the counters to their real-time values.

To view Interfaces simultaneously with other options in the PMVision tree, click New Window.
PortMaster IP address or name of the selected PortMaster.
Interface Ether0 or Ether1, ptp (PPP via a dial-in connection), or Frame Relay (via a dial-in connection).
In Packets Number of packets received.
Out Packets Number of packets transmitted.
In Errors Number of inbound packets received with a transmission errror.
Out Errors Number of attempted outbound packet transmissions that were terminated abnormally because of an error.
Collisions Number of transmissions that collided with another connection and had to be resent. Too many collisions significantly degrades performance.
Resets Number of times the port has been reset.
Queue Current size of packets in the queue waiting to be sent.
