Hi ,
How can I find out the collision rate of .1% ( comparing the collisions with Output packets or bytes)
Here's the output from my ethernet interface
119069488 packets output, 3373784736 bytes, 0 underruns
31 output errors, 41597688 collisions, 0 interface resets
0 babbles, 0 late collision, 5543538 deferred
Thanks
Amit

The network would be considered unhealthy if it is experiencing more than
.1% of packets colliding (do the math). As for your question regarding
what does it take to shut a port down (errDisable) take a look at this

|I would first like to thank everyone. I have been a member of this

|ethernet segment does it take before having a problem?? I was just
|invovled in a situation where we had a hub hanging off a hub connected
|to our 6509. The switchport error disabled and I had to track the
|devices down. I beleive you will always see some collisions in a shared
|ethernet environment??? At what collision rate should you get
|worried??? How much does it take to shut a switch port down???
