Figure 3-6. The Management Station Configuration Window
The Management Station Configuration window contains the following information and configurable options:
Commands
You can choose one of five commands to execute on the management station. To select a command, click mouse button 1 on the button next to it.
No operation (command) will be performed on the | |
| device. |
SW Reset | The device will be reset through the software; note that |
| this does not reset statistical counters. |
HW Reset | A hardware reset will occur on the device, which is the |
| equivalent of physically resetting the device. This |
| reinitializes the module and all counters are reset. |
Open | Forces the management station to “open” on to the ring. |
| This causes the station to participate in the ring poll |
| process and receive and transmit data onto the ring. |
Close | Forces the management station to “close,” therefore |
| removing itself from the ring and making the station |
| incapable of receiving or transmitting any data onto the |
| ring. |
