Connection Statistics Tab
The Connection Statistics Tab presents the combined status of all the established connections, in
one table. It includes the Source Port, Source Stream, Destination Port and Destination Stream
fields to identify the connections, and the rows are in the same order as the table in the
Configuration Tab. The Statistics tab contains two additional fields, the Source Status and the
Destination Status. Since these are color-coded, it is simple to quickly identify any problems.
The Statistics Tab also includes an overall Connection Status indicator, which contains the
highest priority alarm in the table. If the Connection Status indicator is red, the Dashboard™
Card State will be red as well, and the Status LED in the front of the card will also be red. If the
Connection Status indicator is yellow, the Dashboard™ Card Status may also be yellow (unless
there is a higher priority alarm elsewhere).
The meaning of the indicators is as follows:
•
OK: The stream is operating normally. If it is an input, it means that a transport
stream is being received by it; if it is an output, it means that it is either transmitting or
ready to transmit.
•
Warning: The stream is configured but disabled. Simply enabling the stream may
clear this situation.
•
Error: The stream is configured but has detected a problem. If it is an input, this
normally means that no data is being received (e.g., an IP input is not seeing any packets,
an ASI input is not locked). If this is an output, it normally means that the output is
either unable to send (e.g., an IP output configured for unicast but unable to find the
destination MAC address) or dropping packets (e.g., an oversubscribed ASI output). ASI
Outputs with Automatic Rate will be in this state if they do not have data to transmit.
A sample of the Connection Statistics Tab is depicted below.
