FDDI Management
¥If both TTRT value and source address length are equal, the frame with the highest address has precedence.
The
T-Neg. (Negotiated)
The winning time negotiated in the ring initialization sequence.
Concentrator M Ports
This Þeld displays the number of Master (M) ports on the device that are associated with the selected SMT entity. A Master port is a port that provides a connection for Single Attachment Station (SAS) devices to the FDDI network. The
Concentrator Non-M Ports
This Þeld display the number of
Number of MACs
The number of Media Access Control entities present on the device associated with the selected SMT entity. For the
MAC Path
Indicates the conÞguration of the MAC in respect to the logical ring, as determined by the Connection Management (CMT) portion of SMT. CMT controls the establishment of a media attachment to the FDDI network, the connections with other nodes in the ring, and the internal conÞguration of the various entities within a node. CMT provides the link conÞdence test, and speciÞes a Link Error Monitor (LEM) which monitors active links on a
¥Primary indicates that the MAC is inserted into the primary path of the currently used FNB ring.
¥Secondary indicates that the MAC is inserted into the secondary path of the currently used FNB ring.
¥Local means that the MAC is not inserted into a primary or secondary path of a dual ring, but may be connected to one or more other nodes. This is not a valid value for the
¥Isolated means that the MAC has no connection to the ring or other concentrator ports.
