RFC 2665 error on intel
Hi All
RFC 2665 defines "dot3StatsInternalMacReceiveErrors" as a implementation dependent counter for errors while receiving an ethernet frame. Intel defines this error as follows: RMII_FRM_ALN_ERROR || XTRA_BYTE || LEN_ERR || RX_LATE_COLL || (MII_FRM_ALN_ERR && !FCS_ERR) I am seeing that this counter is incrementing on my intel ixp platform. However, I do not fully understand the meaning of "XTRA_BYTE" reason for this counter. Please help in finding out the reasons for which intel will increment this counter. Regards VG |

My understanding is that the comp.sys.intel group mostly discusses (well, something like discussion...) Intel processors. While I cannot discount the possiblity of someone familiar with Intel NICs reading this group, you may have more luck with Intel NIC chips and their drivers either in some specific forum on intel.com (if there is one) or perhaps in comp.protocols.lan.ethernet. rick jones -- The computing industry isn't as much a game of "Follow The Leader" as it is one of "Ring Around the Rosy" or perhaps "Duck Duck Goose." - Rick Jones these opinions are mine, all mine; HP might not want them anyway... feel free to post, OR email to rick.jones2 in hp.com but NOT BOTH... |
