Table 5-14. Frame Relay Performance Statistics (2 of 3)
Statistic What It Indicates
Frame Relay Errors
(cont’d)
Short Rx Frames The number of frames received over the Network or Port-1
interface that were less than 5-octets (five 8-bit bytes) in
length.
There may be a non-frame relay device on the other end of
the link.
Long Rx Frames The number of frames received over the Network or Port-1
interface that were more than 8192-octets in length.
The device on the far end of the link may be configured
incorrectly.
Invalid DLCI The number of frames received over the interface that were
addressed to DLCIs outside the valid range; that is, a number
less than 16 or greater than 1007.
The device on the far end of the circuit may have been
configured incorrectly, or the DLCIs configured for the
FrameSaver unit may not match the DLCIs supplied by the
service provider.
Unknown DLCI The number of frames received over the interface that were
addressed to unknown DLCIs.
The DLCI may not have been configured, or it has been
configured to be Inactive.
Indicates that the FrameSaver units or devices at both or
either end of the circuit have been configured incorrectly.
Unknown Error The number of frames received over the interface that do not
fall into one of the other statistic categories.
Indicates that the error is not one that the unit can recognize.
Frame Relay LMI
LMI Protocol The LMI protocol configured for the frame relay link.
Normal condition.
Status Msg Received The number of LMI status messages received over the
interface.
Normal condition.
Total LMI Errors The number of LMI errors. Reliability errors, protocol errors,
unknown report types, unknown information elements, and
sequence errors are included in this total.
Network problems.
Number of Inactives The number of times the LMI has declared the frame relay link
Inactive.
Network problems.
