Token Ring If Application

The following views provide Token Ring statistics for the Token Ring If
application.

Token Ring Station Detail View

Access this view through the Station Detail button in the Token Ring Station
Table view. The Token Ring Station Detail view provides detailed information
on the selected station. This view includes three color-coded pie charts
presenting a breakdown of token ring application statistics. Each statistic is
presented as a total amount since the module was initialized and as a
percentage of overall trafÞc. Table 5-1, Table 5-2, and Table 5-3 provide
information on the statistics displayed by the pie charts. This view also
provides informational Þelds, which are described below.

Station Address
Displays the MAC (physical) address of the station.

Opens the Token Ring Station Alarms ConÞguration view, which allows you to
change the threshold value and state of the station for the Line, Burst, A/C,
Internal, and Receive Congestion errors.

Transmitted Beacon Count
The number of times this interface has transmitted a beacon frame.

Remove Ring Station Count
The number of times the interface has received a Remove Ring Station MAC
frame request. When this frame is received the interface will enter the close
state and dot5RingState will signify this condition.

Single Station Count
The number of times the interface has sensed that it is the only station on the
ring. This will happen if the interface is the Þrst one up on a ring, or if there is
a hardware problem.

Soft Error Count
The number of Soft Errors the interface has detected. It directly corresponds
to the number of Report Error MAC frames this interface has transmitted.
Soft Errors are those which are recoverable by the MAC layer protocols.

Hard Error Count
The number of times this interface has detected an immediately recoverable
fatal error. It denotes the number of times this interface is either transmitting
or receiving beacon MAC frames.
