Introduction

This appendix contains local management information that is speciﬁc to the

9E106-06 Ethernet Module.

Module Interfaces

The 9E106-06 Ethernet Module has 9 interfaces. Table 1 lists the identifying

number, name, and description of each interface.

FNB Resource Conﬁguration Codes

The 9E106-06 Ethernet Module provides connectivity between seven interfaces:

the six front panel Ethernet interfaces and the FDDI rings on the backplane (FNB-

1 or FNB-2).

The FNB Resource Conﬁguration Screen allows you to connect the module’s front

panel Ethernet interfaces to one of the chassis’ two FDDI networks (FNB-1 or

FNB-2) via a bridge/switch.

The FNB Resource Conﬁguration Screen lists all the possible connections that the

speciﬁed module can support on the FNB, displays the current connection, and

allows you to change the connection. Table 2 lists and describes the FDDI

Connections from which you can select.

Description

1 NORING <-> ENET

Neither the FNB-1 nor the FNB-2 on the

chassis’ backplane is connected to the

module’s bridge/switch.

2 FNB1 <-> ENET

The FNB-1 on the chassis’ backplane

and the module’s Ethernet interface(s)

are connected to the same

bridge/switch.

3 FNB2 <-> ENET

The FNB-2 on the chassis’ backplane

and the module’s Ethernet interface(s)

are connected to the same

bridge/switch.

Interface Statistics Screen Fields

The following information brieﬂy explains each Interface Statistics Screen ﬁeld.

INTERFACE (Toggle)

Allows you to select the interface you want to monitor.

IN OCTETS (Read-only)

Displays the number of octets (bytes) received by this interface.

IN UNICAST PKTS (Read-only)

Displays the number of unicast packets (packets destined for one speciﬁc address)

received by this interface.

IN NONUCAST PKTS (Read-only)

Displays the number of non-unicast packets (multicast and broadcast packets, in

other words, packets destined for more than one address) received by this

interface.

IN DISCARDS (Read-only)

Displays the total number of packets discarded by this interface due to a lack of

available resources.

IN ERRORS (Read-only)

Displays the total number of errors received on this interface. The number

displayed is composed of one of the following errors:

• Out of Window (OOW) Collision, which is one of the following:

• A collision caused by a station on the network violating Carrier Sense and

transmitting at will

• A cable failure occurring during the transmission of a frame

• A network propagation delay greater than 51.2 ms

• Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Errors - Errors in the 4-byte CRC ﬁeld of a

frame that ensures that the data received by the module is the same as the data

transmitted by the originating device.

• Alignment Errors - Alignment errors are frames that are misaligned (in other

words, frames that contain a non-integral number of bytes).

• Runt Packets - Runt packets are packets that are smaller than the minimum

Ethernet frame size of 64 bytes, not including preamble.

• Giant Packets - Giant packets are packets that are larger than the maximum

Ethernet frame size of 1,518 bytes, not including preamble.

OUT OCTETS (Read-only)

Displays the number of octets (bytes) transmitted by this interface.

OUT UNICAST PKTS (Read-only)

Displays the number of unicast packets (packets destined for one speciﬁc address)

transmitted by this interface.

OUT NONUCAST PKTS (Read-only)

other words, packets destined for more than one address) transmitted by this

interface.

OUT DISCARDS (Read-only)

available resources.

OUT ERRORS (Read-only)

Displays the total number of errors for the interface.

Clearing All Statistical Counters

To clear all statistical counters:

1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the

CLEAR COUNTERS

command.

2. Press the

Enter

key.

All counters will be reset to zero and then updated after the current update

frequency has passed.

Selecting Another Update Frequency

To select another update frequency:

1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the

UPDATE-FREQ

command.

2. Press [=] or [-] until the desired value appears.

3. Press the

Enter

key.

Local Management will not ask you for veriﬁcation before clearing the statistical

counters. Make sure you understand the implications of clearing all statistical

counters.

INTERFACE

ﬁelds at the top of

the Interface Statistics Screen.

2. Press

SHIFT

and [=] or [-] until the desired value appears.

3. Press the

Port Redirect Function Screen

The 9E106-06 Port Redirect Function Screen (Figure 2),, allows you to set each one

of the ports as a source or destination port. You can set a port to have one or more

destination ports. For example, you can set port 1 as a source port with three

destinations: ports 2, 3, and 4. Trafﬁc from port 1 is then automatically redirected

to ports 2, 3, and 4. Port 1 can also serve as a destination port for other ports.

There can be more than one Port Redirect Function screen depending on the

number of port redirect entries. Each screen displays up to 10 port redirect entries.

If there is more than one screen of redirect entries, the

either the next or previous screen.

For example, with three screens of entries, the

displays at the

bottom of the ﬁrst screen. In the second screen, the

displayed.
