PPP Stats (General)

B-D-H (A)

 

 

Displays a summary of the PPP activity on a selected interface on the card.

Interface Name – Enter the name of the desired DSL interface (s1c, s1d, s1e, s1f). Link Phase – Current phase/state of this link (Init, Link Control).

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.

Unknown Pkts Received – Number of packets received with unknown address.

Bad Checksum Packets Received – Number of packets received with bad checksum. Frame Errors Received – Number of packets received with bad framing.

Other Pkt Errors Received – Number of packets received with an error not listed above.

Alloc Failures Received – Card was unable to allocate enough memory to receive the packet.

LCP Stats (PPP)

B-D-H (B)

 

 

Displays a summary of the Link Control Protocol (LCP) 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).

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.

IPCP General Stats (PPP)

B-D-H (C)

 

 

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.
