Generic Statistics for Token Ring Drivers That Use Tokentsm.nlm
Description
This counter is incremented when a ring station receives a
Standby Monitor Present MAC frame with the A/C bits in the
Frame Status field equal to zero without first receiving an Active
Monitor Present MAC frame.
This counter is incremented when a ring station transmits an
abort delimiter.
An abort delimiter is transmitted when a ring station receives a
frame in which the token bit of the access control field is set to
show Token and not Frame.
A ring station can also transmit an abort delimiter if an internal
hardware error has occurred.
This counter is incremented when a ring station detects the
absence of five half-bit times (a burst-five error).
Other stations will detect a burst-four error followed by idles.
This counter is incremented when a ring station recognizes
(receives or repeats) a frame addressed to its specific address
and detects that the FC field A bits are set to 1, indicating a
possible line hit or a duplicate address.
This counter is incremented when the frequency of the incoming
signal differs from the expected frequency by more than that
specified in Section 7 of IEEE Standard 802.5-1989.
This counts the times a ring station has a recoverable internal
error, which means a ring station is probably marginal.
This code changes each time the ring status changes. Status
codes are reported by the physical hardware.
See the IBM* Token-Ring Network Architecture Reference for the
status code, function, and meaning.
This counter is incremented when a frame or token is repeated by
the ring station.
A frame is repeated when a Frame check Sequence error occurs
or a code violation exists between the starting and ending
delimiters of the frame.
