This completes the procedure to configure FDDI cards, and as with the ATM
card, we would like to introduce some of the
maint
commands we found to be
useful.
4.4.9 Some maint Commands for the FDDI Media Card
The
maint
commands display a range of information about the FDDI media
card. The FDDI card has an individual processor for the transmit and receive
side, and two sets of
maint
commands. One set, the
maint 1
commands,
covers the receive (RX) side, while the second set, the
maint 70
commands,
covers the transmit (TX) side.
To use
maint,
follow these steps:
• First, switch to the
maint
prompt with the
grrmb
command. A new prompt,
GR 66>
, will appear.
• Then change the prompt port to the FDDI media card you are working
with. For example, if you are working with a card in slot 0, enter
port 0
at
the
GR> 66
prompt.
The following message is returned along with the changed prompt:
Current port card is 0
GR 0>
• To leave any
maint
prompt and return to the shell, enter
quit
.
Following are just a few
maint
commands we have found useful; of course,
your needs may vary.
To obtain a list of FDDI CPU0
maint
commands, enter
maint 1.
Enter the
maint 70
command to switch to the set of CPU1 commands. The
maint 3
command returns configuration information for each interface; to list statistics
per FDDI interface, use
maint 4
; to list switch interface statistics, enter
maint 5.
Clear all statistics with the
maint 7
command. Display the current ARP table’s
content with
maint 70 8
. Reset individual FDDI interfaces using
maint 12
and
the physical interface number (0–3);
maint 12 0
will reset port 0.
