, Enhanced
Basic level checking monitors Tx/Rx
errors (see
Sampling Window
), link
beat, and NIC hardware. Enhanced
level adds maintenance of valid data
structures and uses more CPU cycles.
Basic level checking is forced when RSL
is enabled. Off disables SHD.
Sampling
Window
0–65536 packets
0 disables sampling.

This option specifies the number of Tx/Rx
packets to be sampled for carrier lost,
late collisions, jabbers, CRC, overruns,
underruns, and bus contention errors.
Setting the Sampling Window to 0
effectively disables all checking.
