FDDI Applications

6-12 FDDI Statistics

Ring Ops
The number of times the ring has entered the ÒRing OperationalÓ state from the
ÒRing Not OperationalÓ state during the selected interval. This counter updates
when the HSIM-F6Õs MAC informs Station Management (SMT) of a change in
Ring Operation status.
FDDI Statistics
The FDDI Statistics window displays trafÞc statistics for the HSIM-F6Õs SMT
entity, including the number of frames and kilobytes per second (averaged over a
deÞned poll rate), the peak number of kilobytes per second, and the moduleÕs
bandwidth utilization (expressed as a percentage) for the current poll interval.
To access the FDDI Statistics window:
1. In the Chassis View window, click on Device to display the Device menu.
2. Click on FDDI Statistics. The FDDI Statistics window (Figure 6-6) will appear.
Figure 6-6. The FDDI Statistics Window
The FDDI Statistics window displays the following information for the module:
SMT#
This Þeld displays the index number of Station Management (SMT) entity for the
HSIM-F6.
Frames/sec
The number of frames/second (averaged over the speciÞed poll interval)
transmitted by the indicated SMT.
