The status messages for Enet Port 1 and Enet Port 2 are:
LINK OK/SQE ON Indicates that a proper link is established with the
network and that SQE (a test to insure that the
collision presence circuit and path is working) is

Note that the SQE ON status message will also
appear for transceivers with SQE disabled until a
packet is transmitted from the bridge through the
Ethernet SPIM.
LINK OK/SQE OFF Indicates that a proper link is established with the
network and SQE is disabled on the transceiver
connected to the bridge.
CARRIER LOST If a SPIM-A is installed in the port, this indicates
that the port has lost communications with the
network.
For other SPIMs, this message may indicate that
the SPIM is not properly installed in the NB30.
LINK LOST If a SPIM-T, SPIM-T1, SPIM-F1 or SPIM-F2 is
installed in the port, this message indicates that the
link between the port and the Ethernet device has
failed.

not transferring data.
