•
Savings – XX% (shown as a percentage) is calculated using the following formula:
100 * (1- (Bytes Out/Bytes In))
•
Last 10s – Calculated is calculated using the exact same formula as Savings XX% but uses
the Bytes In and Bytes Out for the past 10 seconds so an operator can see what
compression is being accomplished on current data.
After viewing the desired statistics screen(s), should it be desired to clear the statistics buffer

5.2.4.7 Monitor: Buffer
WAN Buffer Fill Status: 100%
This read ‐ only screen indicates the fill state of the Modem to WAN or Modem to Satellite Buffer.
When the WAN Buffer Fill Status figure is increasing , this indicates that user traffic is exceeding
the capacity of the satellite link. If the figure is decreasing , this indicates that there is more
satellite capacity than there is user traffic.
When Flow Control is Enabled (see Sect. 5.2.2.1.4 (CONFIG: INTF) GBE X
Æ
FlowControl), the modem begins to send Pause Frames to any device connected
to the Ethernet Data Interfaces at approximately 87% capacity. Pause Frames
cease to be sent to the Ethernet Interfaces when the WAN Buffer Full Status drops
below 75% capacity.
