Table 5%5. LANIC Card Status Bit Definitions

 

 

Status Code

Status Definition

 

 

NV2

NOVRAM Bank #2 is in use. Nonvolatile memory is broken into two redundant

 

banks. If this bit is set to •1", Bank #1 has failed and the back7up memory bank is in

 

use. The LANIC card (or NOVRAM) should be replaced at the next opportunity.

 

 

PME

Promiscuous Mode is enabled. The node will accept every packet transmitted on the

 

LAN. (Refer to Chapter 4.)

 

 

BME

Broadcast Mode is enabled. The node will accept packets containing Broadcast

 

addresses.

 

 

MME

Multicast Address Mode is enabled. The node will accept packets containing

 

Multicast addresses.

 

 

MPF

MAU power failure. The MAU draws its power through the LANIC card and cannot

 

operate when power is lost. A likely cause is a blown fuse. Refer to the HP 12076A

 

LAN/1000 Link Local Area Network Interface Controller (LANIC) Installation Manual

 

(part number 12076790001) for fuse replacement instructions.

 

 

NRB

No receive buffers. Receive Transmission (RX) buffers on the card are full and cannot

 

accept additional packets.

 

 

RPA

Receive packet available. A packet is in a Receive Transmission (RX) buffer waiting to

 

be read by the system.

 

 

WTB

Waiting for a transmit buffer. The driver is currently waiting for transmission buffer

 

space on the card.

 

 

UIP

Unsolicited interrupt pending. The card has attempted to interrupt the driver (for

 

example, because of a received packet is available), but the driver has not yet

 

responded.

 

 

LWS

Last write status. This bit refers to writes to the card and is normally •1". When this

 

bit is •0", the last write was unsuccessful.

 

 

NVF

NOVRAM failure. This bit indicates that NOVRAM data has been lost. If repeated

 

failures occur after rewriting to NOVRAM, it may be necessary to replace NOVRAM.

 

Consult the HP 12076A LAN/1000 Link Local Area Network Interface Controller

 

(LANIC) Installation Manual (part number 12076790001) for NOVRAM replacement

 

instructions.

 

 

DME

ARP packet filter mode is enabled. If the target IP address in the ARP packet does

 

not match the configured IP address, the packet is discarded.

 

 

DMA

The last Direct Memory Access operation aborted abnormally.
