LOCAL MANAGEMENT

•Unknown, Indicates the state of the ring cannot be detected by the management station.

•Closed, Indicates that the management station is not inserted into the ring and therefore cannot determine the ring state.

•Normal, Indicates the ring is running with no problems, and tokens are being detected by the management station.

•Purge, Indicates that the active monitor has issued a ring purge command. Communications will be restored when a new token is released.

•Contention, Indicates that the ring has entered into the active monitor contention process to determine a new active monitor for the ring.

•Beaconing, Indicates that the management station has detected a beacon frame.

•Lobe Fail, Indicates that a station failed the lobe self- test when it attempted to insert into the ring.

Ring Number

Displays the number of rings on the network.

Stations on a Ring

Displays the number of stations inserted into the ring.

Ports Enabled

Displays the number of network lobe ports enabled.

Ring Speed

Displays the ring speed of the TRXI as either 4 Mb/s or 16 Mb/s.

NON-ISOLATING ERRORS

Non-Isolating Errors are “soft error” conditions that could have been caused by any station on the ring. Their fault domain cannot be detected.

Lost Frame Errors

Displays the total number of Lost Frame Errors. These errors occur when the adapter fails to receive the end of the frame it has just transmitted. The frame was lost somewhere on the ring but there is no way to pinpoint where. This can be caused by stations entering or leaving the ring.
