originating

ATM station. In a network

where

the

number

of

ATM stations

exceeds

256, which

is the maximum number of

SVCs

per

4404B,

some

stations will

not be

able to connect until the bridges

clear

their SVCs

that

are unused

(aging out

process).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Steps to Take:

1. Wait up to 4 minutes (aging time on the 4404B bridge), or avoid parallel bridging.

LES Monitor:

after 3

minutes, the

workstation

is de-registered

from the LES (valid

only for IBM proprietary LAN emulation).

 

 

Explanation:

The

workstation

did not

send the

re-registration message within 3

minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Steps to Take:

1. Ensure that the port for the workstation is connected properly.

2.Ensure that the cable between the ONcore and the workstation is connected properly.

3. Shutdown, then power off the workstation and restart.

If the problem persists, contact your workstation/adapter supplier.

In

a multi

Token-ring bridges

configuration, a

Token-ring bridge cannot register to

the

LES.

(valid only for

IBM proprietary

LAN emulation).

Explanation: Different ring numbers are assigned to the ATM ports of two bridges connected to the same LES.

Steps to

Take:

 

 

 

 

 

1. Check the

ring numbers

of

the ATM ports of all

the

bridges attached to the same

LES;

these

numbers should

be

equal. Change them

if

necessary.
