Field Description

Next Hop Mac
Address

In this screen Next Hop Mac Address displayed is in fact the resulting Mac
Address of the ARP process for the destination IP address.
N/A: Indicates that a cross connection was made and this field is irrelevant.

FFFFFFFF:

Indicates an unreachable bundle.

Connectivity Status

Disabled:

Channel is disabled.

OK:

Indicates that Ethernet frames are received on the local and

remote IPmux-16.
OK-LOOP:

Indicates that a cross connection has been successfully made.

Remote Fail: Ethernet frames are not received by the remote IPmux-16.
Local Fail:

Ethernet frames are not received by the local IPmux-16.

Disabled:

Connection is disabled.

Sequence Errors

The number of times a frame was dropped because frames were received from
the network with SN field not equal to the last SN + 1. This indicates a packet
loss or a certain level of packet misordering.

Jitter Buffer
Underflows

The number of times frames were dropped because the receive buffer was in an
underflow state. The buffer enters underflow state when:

• Recurring or numerous sequence errors occur
• Underflow takes place due to PDV expiration
• An overflow condition occurs.

Jitter Buffer Overflows Number of times that frames were dropped because the receive buffer exceeded

the maximum allowed depth.

For internal cross-connected bundles, the Next Hop MAC Address will be set to

N/A, and the Connectivity Status will be OK – Loop to the cross-connected bundle.
