STATISTICS
4.1 DISPLAYING PORT STATUS
Using LCM, you can obtain the status of a specific Token Ring port by
typing
status . (Type status to display all the ATX port
numbers.) A sample display of a Token Ring port status is shown below.
ATX >status 7
Port 7 (1st port on module 3) Status
Type: 4Mbps 802.5 Token Ring
Bridging: Source Routing Transparent Bridging (segment=0,
bridge=0)
Routing: IP Routing
Enabled/Disabled: Bridging/Routing functions enabled
Spanning Tree: Forwarding
Packets Transmitted: 324
Packets Received: 627
Small Buffers: 65
RxQ Overflows: 37
Ring State: Open
Ring Status: No Problems
The status of a Token Ring port includes the following information:
• Type - whether the ring is operating at 4 or 16 Mbps, and the module
type, i.e., 802.5 Token Ring.
• Bridging - which functions have been enabled for bridging (see the
bridge command).
• Routing - which functions have been enabled for routing (see iproute
and ipxroute commands in your NMS manual).
• Enabled/Disabled - enabled if it is operational, or disabled if you used
the
disable command to disable it. If the port is enabled but not
operational, its status will be broken. (A port could be broken if it is so
badly misconfigured as to be unusable. You might also see a status of
broken if an FDDI or Token Ring port can’t connect to a logical ring,
or if an Ethernet port continually fails as it tries to transmit.). Refer to
your NMS manual for commands.
