The only statistic that's counted as an output error is 'FramesDeferred,' which the manual describes as the number of times a transmit packet must defer to network traffic. These occur only in half-duplex modes, for obvious reasons. Perhaps it's not correct to account for this as an output error? -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (212) 854-6020 | System Manager, Master of Unix-Fu Work: wpaul@ctr.columbia.edu | Center for Telecommunications Research Home: wpaul@skynet.ctr.columbia.edu | Columbia University, New York City ============================================================================= "It is not I who am crazy; it is I who am mad!" - Ren Hoek, "Space Madness" ============================================================================= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
