Field Description
Next Hop Mac
Address
In this screen Next Hop Mac Address displayed is in fact the resulting Mac
Address of the ARP process for the destination IP address.
N/A: Indicates that a cross connection was made and this field is irrelevant.
FFFFFFFF: Indicates an unreachable bundle.
Connectivity Status Disabled: Channel is disabled.
OK: Indicates that Ethernet frames are received on the local and
remote IPmux-16.
OK-LOOP: Indicates that a cross connection has been successfully made.
Remote Fail: Ethernet frames are not received by the remote IPmux-16.
Local Fail: Ethernet frames are not received by the local IPmux-16.
Disabled: Connection is disabled.
Sequence Errors The number of times a frame was dropped because frames were received from
the network with SN field not equal to the last SN + 1. This indicates a packet
loss or a certain level of packet misordering.
Jitter Buffer
Underflows
The number of times frames were dropped because the receive buffer was in an
underflow state. The buffer enters underflow state when:
Recurring or numerous sequence errors occur
Underflow takes place due to PDV expiration
An overflow condition occurs.
Jitter Buffer Overflows Number of times that frames were dropped because the receive buffer exceeded
the maximum allowed depth.
For internal cross-connected bundles, the Next Hop MAC Address will be set to N/A, and the Connectivity Status will be OK – Loop to the cross-connected bundle.
