GWCON Process

Input Unk Proto

Number of packets received for an unknown protocol.

Input Flow Drop

Number of packets received that are ¯ow controlled on output.

Output Discards

Number of packets that the router chose to discard rather than transmit due to ¯ow control.

Output Errors

Number of output errors, such as attempts to send over a network that is down or over a network that went down during transmission.

Note: The sum of the discarded output packets is not the same as input ¯ow drops over all networks. Discarded output may indicate locally originated packets.

Event

Use the event command to access the Event Logging System (ELS) console environment. This environment is used to set up temporary message ®lters for troubleshooting purposes. All changes made in the ELS console environment will take effect immediately, but will go away when the router is reinitialized. See ªChapter 12. Using the Event Logging System (ELS)º on page 147 for information about the Event Logging System and its commands. Use the exit command to return to the GWCON process.

Feature

Use the feature command to access console commands for speci®c 2210 features outside of the protocol and network interface console processes.

Enter a question mark after the feature command to obtain a listing of the features available for your software release.

To access that feature's console prompt, enter the feature command at the GWCON prompt followed by the feature number or short name. Table 7 on page 68 lists available feature numbers and names.

Once you access the prompt for that feature, you can begin entering speci®c commands to monitor that feature. To return to the GWCON prompt, enter the exit command at the feature's console prompt.
