GETTING STARTED WITH FDMMIM/LM
Detect
The claim (beacon) process of the
FDDI ring protocol has exceeded 1
second. There may be a problem.
Non-Op-Dup
The ring failed to complete the claim
(beacon) process. This usually
indicates a duplicate FDDI address.
Ring-Op-Dup
The ring is operational, but a
duplicate FDDI address may be
present somewhere on the network.
Directed
The claim (beacon) process did not
complete within 10 seconds. The
bridge is sending directed beacons to
indicate a problem.
Trace
A problem has been detected with the
FDMMIM or its nearest upstream
neighbor. A trace is being sent to
notify the nearest upstream neighbor
of the problem.
Status/Bridge Status indicates the current status of the FDMMIM.
Three potential status conditions could appear in this field:
On-Line
The FDMMIM is fully operational.
Standby
In Standby with STA enabled, the
FDMMIM bridge is learning address
information but is not forwarding
frames. Standby usually indicates
that the bridge is not the root bridge
in a parallel bridge network.
Disabled
The bridge is disabled (refer to Setup
screen, ENABLE/DISABLE
command). While disabled, the bridge
is not learning address information
and no traffic is being forwarded.
