- I'm not sure if I posted this message properly the first time so
- I'll try again...
-
- I'm concerned about "Overrun" error rates. I had Peek listen to
- 15,000 packets on our network. Error counts were Overruns = 2254
- (that's about 15%), CRC = 0 and Time Outs = 0. I'm happy with the
- last two, but I'm wondering about the Overruns.
-
- Could someone tell me what an Overrun is, whether I should be concerned,
- and if so, how to reduce them?
-
- Or, I'd appreciate recommendations for books which explain network
- problems and diagnostic procedures related to AppleTalk.
-
- Most gratefully,
