Octets Transmitted – Number of octets (8 bit bytes) transmitted.
Octets Received – Number of octets received.
Frames Transmitted – Number of frames (groups of data bits) transmitted. Frames Received – Number of frames received.
Alloc Failures on Send – Number of packets not transmitted because there was no memory available to build the packet.

Interface name – Enter the name of the desired interface (s1c, s1d, s1e, s1f).
Link Phase – Current phase/state of this link (Init, Link Control, Opened).
LCP Configuration – Configuration of the link control protocol.
Async Bit Map – Coding used to embed PPP control characters in the data section of the packet.
Authentication – Authentication type required for the connect to be accepted (usually none).
Magic Number – Unique number associated with this end of the link, used to ensure the link is not a loopback.

Displays a summary of the IP Control Protocol (IPCP) activity on a selected interface on the card. The screen is divided into two parts – the left side is for the local end of the link; the right side is for the remote end of the link.
Interface name – Enter the name of the desired interface (s1c, s1d, s1e, s1f).
Link Phase – Current phase/state of this link (Init, Link Control, Opened).
IPCP Configuration – Configuration of the IPCP protocol.
State – State of the IP link (Initial, Opened, Closed).
IP Address – IP address assigned to this end of the link.
