Netopia r9100 User Manual

■

LT (LocalTalk on the PhoneNET) if the optional AppleTalk feature set is installed

The right side of the table lists the total number of occurrences of each of six types of communication 
statistics:

Rx Bytes. The number of bytes received

Tx Bytes. The number of bytes transmitted

Rx Packets: The number of packets received

Tx Pkts. The number of packets transmitted

Rx Err:  The number of bad Ethernet packets received

Tx Err: An error occurring when Ethernet packets are transmitted simultaneously by nodes on the LAN

The Netopia R9100 records cer tain relevant occurrences in event histories. Event histories are useful for 
diagnosing problems because they list what happened before, during, and after a problem occurs. You can view 
two different event histories: one for the router’s system and one for the WAN. The Netopia R9100’s built-in 
batter y backup prevents loss of event histor y from a shutdown or reset. 

The router’s event histories are structured to display the most recent events first, and to make it easy to 
distinguish error messages from informational messages. Error messages are prefixed with an asterisk. Both 
the WAN Event Histor y and Device Event Histor y retain records of the 128 most recent events.

In the Statistics & Logs screen, select WAN Event History. The WAN Event Histor y screen appears.
