CSMA/CD network transmission errors such as collisions, CRC errors, misalignment, etc. are statistical in nature. Although errors can vary randomly, a high level of errors does indicate specific network problems (e.g. equipment failure). This paper examines the random nature of collisions theoretically as well as from actual statistics, and establishes a threshold above which a network problem is indicated with a high probability.
