2989.0. "FDDI bridge statistics" by KETJE::REMANS () Wed May 13 1992 12:06

The "Total bytes sent" bridge line counter does't seem to include the 
"Device bytes sent" . Why do the algorithms of the performance analyser only 
take " Total bytes sent" into account when calculating the network utilisation.
I supose that you should add also " Device bytes sent"

'doen't seem' -
	I am interested to find out the facts which conveyed this impression.
	May be you didn't look at both lines together?

	The "Total bytes sent" over the line DOES include the "Device bytes 
	sent", provided that the bridge generated frame has been sent over 
	this particular line. I.e., a bridge (device) frame bytes would be 
	counted in the total for the line over which the frame has been 
	actually transmitted.

	I.e., these frames are also counted in the utilization for Enet
	on each line.

2989.2FDDI line statisitcs not supportedQUIVER::HAROKOPUSMon May 18 1992 14:484
Bridge line statistics are only supported for ethernet lines.
FDDI lines are NOT supported (i.e. line 1 on the DECbridge 5xx and 6xx).
