The RMON Statistics will provide the following performance information for the hub you have chosen: Octets displays the total number of octets received, including good and bad octets. An octet, commonly referred to as a byte, is a set of eight bits of data. Receive Packets displays the total number of packets received from the network, including both good and bad, or corrupt, packets. Good Broadcast Packets displays the number of braodcast packets received from the network. A broadcast packet is a transmission that is sent to all of the nodes on the network. Good Multicast Packets displays the number of multicast packets received from the network. A multicast packet is sent to one or more specific locations on the network, and is different from a broadcast packet. CRC-Align Error Packets displays the number of valid-length packets (between 64 and 1,518 octets long) that had a bad or corrupted FCS. Undersize Packets displays the number of received good packets less than 64 octets long. Oversize Packets displayes the number of received good packets more than 1,518 octets long. Fragment Packets displays the number of received bad packets less than 64 octets long.

Receive Packets
displays the total number of packets
received from the network, including
both good and bad, or corrupt, packets.
Good Broadcast
displays the number of braodcast
Packets
packets received from the network. A
broadcast packet is a transmission that is
sent to all of the nodes on the network.
Good Multicast
displays the number of multicast packets
Packets
received from the network. A multicast
packet is sent to one or more specific
locations on the network, and is differ-
ent from a broadcast packet.
CRC-Align Error
displays the number of valid-length
Packets
packets (between 64 and 1,518 octets
long) that had a bad or corrupted FCS.
Undersize Packets

good
packets more than 1,518 octets long.
Fragment Packets
displays the number of received
bad
packets less than 64 octets long.
