Ring
States Description
Isolated The concentrator is not attached to the ring.
Non-Op The concentrator is attempting to enter the ring.
Ring-Op The ring is operational.
Detect The claim/beacon process of the FDDI ring protocol has exceeded
one second. This indicates a potential problem.
Non-Op-Dup The ring failed to complete the claim/beacon process because a
duplicate FDDI address has been detected.
Ring-Op-Dup The ring is operational, but a duplicate FDDI address has been
detected.
Directed The claim/beacon process did not complete within nine seconds.
The concentrator is now sending directed beacons to indicate a
problem.
Trace A problem has been detected with the station or its upstream
neighbor. A trace is being sent to notify the upstream neighbor of
the problem. The concentrator and all stations between the
concentrator and its upstream neighbor can perform self-tests.
