Statistics Overview
The TR Port Statistics screen provides a top level sum-
mary of TR-in-FE Port statistics. You can use the sum-
mary to estimate the amount of traffic on your
network backbone, and to check the health of the
incoming connection. To view the summary, proceed
as follows from the I/O Module menu:

■
Listening—The state in which all ports are
placed while Spanning Tree configures the net-
work topology. Ports remain in this state until
the root bridge is selected. This period should
be long enough for a port to hear from all other
ports on the switch.

■
Learning—The state in which ports receive
data on the topology of the network for the
purpose of learning the stations attached to the
port. If the port receives no information that
would force it into the blocking state, then it
moves on to the forwarding state.

■
Forwarding—This state allows the port to per-
form standard switching and bridging func-
tions. Packets are received and the port either
forwards or discards them based on the address
of the packet and the switch’s address table.

Blocking—In this state, the port continues to

ogy but does not transmit them. The port nei-
