CAUTION
The Dump History command is rather invasive, and may cause this station to drop
tokens.
Dump History:
Entered as DH, the history buffer maintained at this node is displayed (see Figure 8-
46). Displayed are the source addresses of the last 255 stations to send a token on the wire. Note
that the address of the station displaying this buffer is not seen. The location of the asterisks (***)
shows the starting point of the display. The escape key will return you to the main menu. Pressing
Enter will display the content of the next buffer captured.

Transmits:
Number of UDP transmissions successfully made.
Transmit Errors:
