•Last Status Change—Date and time that the status of the link last changed.
•Status—Current status of the link. Possible values are:
–
Active (green ball)—The link is currently fully functional.
–
Blocked (red ball)—Traffic on this link is disabled by protocol.
–
Failed (red ball)—An error is preventing traffic from flowing on this
link, or the associated linkset has been set to Shutdown status.
A link can be Failed from an MTP3 perspective, but control messages
might still be sent or received on the link, resulting in changing
packet/second and bit/second rates. The rates might also be different at
each end of the link, depending on the reason for the failure and the
timing related to each endpoint.
–
InhibitLoc (blue ball)—A local ITP administrator has set the link to
prevent traffic from flowing.
–
InhibitRem (blue ball)—A remote ITP administrator has set the link to
prevent traffic from flowing.

traffic from flowing.
