Network Statistics panel (
1
)
This section displays information related to the outgoing stream traffic. In addition to
indicating the network condition (good, reduced, poor, or none) and the link speed
(1000 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 10 Mbps) for the LAN to which the SMD 101 is connected.
The
Network Statistics
panel is divided into two subpanels:
Current Stream
(
4
) and
Total
(
5
).
Network Conditions
(
3
) — Monitors and displays information concerning network traffic
including:
•
Network Condition:
— Very Good, Good, Poor, or Disconnected.
•
Link Speed:
— The speed of the connection negotiated with the link partner (1 Gbps,
100 Mbps, 10 Mbps).
The
Current Stream
panel (
4
) displays information about the currently playing stream,
clip, or file including:
•
Peak Stream Bitrate:
— Populated for streams only. The combined audio and video
bit rate for the current stream.
•
Audio Bitrate:
— The current stream audio bitrate.
•
Video Bitrate:
— The current stream video bitrate.
•
Received Packets:
— Total received packet count for the current source since
playback of the stream started.
•
Dropped Packets:
— Total dropped packets for the current source since playback of
the stream started.
•
Dropped %:
— Total percentage of dropped packets for the current source since
playback of the stream started.
•
Jitter:
— For transport streams, audio and video streams are combined for this value.
•
Audio Jitter:
— For elementary streams, the audio stream jitter in milliseconds.
•
Video Jitter:
— For elementary streams, the video stream jitter in milliseconds.
The data in all current stream categories resets automatically when a new stream is selected
or when play stops.
The
Total
panel (
5
) displays a running total of raw network statistics from the interface for
all streams, files, or clips played since the last manual reset (
Reset
Totals
) including:
•
Collisions:
— Always zero for full duplex links. This provides the number of data
collisions on the network.
•
Rx_Bytes:
— Total number of received bytes.
•
Rx_dropped:
— Total number of receive packets dropped out of the total number
received in bytes.
•
Rx_errors:
— Number of errors in the received data, in bytes.
•
Rx_packets:
— Number of packets received.
•
Tx_Bytes:
— Total number of transmitted bytes.
•
Tx_dropped:
— Total number of transmitted packets dropped out of the total number
transmitted in bytes.
•
Tx_errors:
— Number of errors in the transmitted data, in bytes.
•
Tx_packets:
— Number of packets transmitted.

Totals
to return all values in the
Total
panel to zero. The information
monitoring restarts automatically after each reset.
