In rare cases an N-Ring can have a “Partial Fault”. An example of this is to have a break in just one fiber in
a duplex channel fiber pair. The screenshot below shows N-Ring Manager Status when a ‘Higher’ N-Ring
Port (GB2 or FX2) is not receiving self health frames all the way around the N-Ring, though the other (low
GB1/FX1) N-Ring port is:
N-Ring Partial Fault (GB2 is not receiving self health from GB1)
