8: Device Ports

Note: It may take a few minutes for the system to apply the settings to multiple ports.

Port Status and Counters

Port Counters describe the status of signals and interfaces. SLC advanced console manager updates and increments the port counters as signals change and data flows in and out of the system. These counters help troubleshoot connections or diagnose problems because they give the user an overview of the state of various parameters. By setting them to zero and then re- checking them later, the user can view changes in status.

The chart in the middle of the page displays the flow control lines and port statistics for the device port. The system automatically updates these values. To reset them to zeros, select the Zero port counters checkbox in the IP Settings section of the page.

Note: Status and statistics shown on the web interface represent a snapshot in time. To see the most recent data, you must reload the web page.
