Displaying Information About the Access Server
Field | Description |
|
|
Receive Failure Reasons | Mask providing information about the type or |
| types of receive failure encountered if the |
| Receive Failures counter is not zero. This is a |
| cumulative mask. The following are the bits |
| defined in the mask: |
| Bit |
| 0 |
| 1 |
| 2 |
Unrecognized Destination | Number of times a frame was passed through |
| the hardware, but the access server did not |
| recognize the multicast address and discarded |
| the message. This value reflects multicast |
| traffic or other traffic addressed to the access |
| server from protocols not supported by the |
| access server. The count will be high if the |
| access server does not have an IP address and |
| is connected to a network with ARP traffic. If |
| this count is extremely high (greater than 10 |
| for each second of uptime), the access server |
| performance could be adversely effected. |
Data Overrun | Number of times the access server hardware |
| lost an incoming frame, because it was unable |
| to keep up with the data rate. This value should |
| be 0. |
User Buffer Unavailable | Number of times the access server did not have |
| a user buffer available to store an incoming |
| frame that passed through the system buffer. |
| This counter should accumulate at a rate of less |
| than two counts per day. Note that the value |
| of this counter could be high if there are a large |
| number of LAT service multicast |
| announcements on the network. Also, it is |
| normal to experience some errors when nodes |
| are added to the Ethernet. |
