Network port
The following information is provided for a network port.
Network Port Status
• MBytes/Sec—The average number of megabytes transferred (transmitted or received) over the NIC port
each second.
• MBits TX/Sec—The average number of megabits transmitted from the selected NIC port each second.
• MBits RX/Sec—The average number of megabits received by the selected NIC port each second.
• TX Utilization %—The percentage of data that is transmitted from the selected NIC port. This value is
calculated from the TX MBits/Sec and the operating speed of the NIC port.
• RX Utilization %—The percentage of data that is received from the selected NIC port. This value is
calculated from the RX MBits/Sec and the operating speed of the NIC port.
• Port Utilization %—The percentage of data that is transferred (transmitted over the NIC port). If the port is
running in full duplex mode, Port Utilization % is the higher of TX Utilization % and RX Utilization %. If the
port is running in half duplex mode, Port Utilization % is the sum of TX Utilization % and RX Utilization %.
