• Wrap-A - The flow of the primary ring is entering through port A
(primary in) and is wrapped by the MAC, causing the ring to exit
through port A (secondary out). Port B is disconnected from the ring.
If the HSIM-F6 MAC Configuration reads “Wrap-A” the ring has lost
the redundancy of the secondary ring due to the wrapped condition.
This configuration should be repaired, as additional problems could
isolate stations from the FDDI ring.
