94 Managing ports
LIP(AL_PD,AL_PS) Number of F7, AL_PS LIPs, or AL_PD (vendor specific) resets
performed.
LIP(F7,AL_PS) Used to reinitialize the loop. An L_port, identified by AL_PS,
may have noticed a performance degradation and is trying
to restore the loop.
LIP(F7,F7) A loop initialization primitive frame used to acquire an
AL_PA.
LIP(F8,AL_PS) Denotes a loop failure detected by the L_port identified by
AL_PS.
LIP(F8,F7) A loop initialization primitive frame used to indicate that a
Loop Failure has been detected at its receiver and does not
have a valid AL_PA.
Login Count Number of device logins that have occurred on the switch.
Long Frame Count Number of incidents in which one or more frames greater
than the maximum size (2136 bytes) are received.
Logout Count Number of device logouts that have occurred on the switch.
Loop Timeouts Number of loop timeouts. The Loop timeout value (LP_TOV)
is 22 seconds. LP_TOV is used to keep a Loop from
deteriorating due to protocol errors or lost Ordered Sets.
Loss Of Sync Number of synchronization losses (>100 ms) detected by
this port. A loss of synchronization is detected by receipt of
an invalid transmission word.
Primitive Sequence Errors Number of invalid transitions made in the Link State
Machine. Primitives are recognized words that are not data
words.
Rx Link Resets Number of link resets received from a device.
Rx Offline Sequences Number of offline sequence primitives received by the port.
Short Frame Count Number of incidents in which one or more frames smaller
than the minimum size (24 bytes) are received.
Total Errors Total number of primitive and non-primitive port link errors.
Total Link Resets Number of link-reset primitives transmitted and received by
the port.
Total LIPs Received Number of loop initialization primitive frames received.
Total LIPs Transmitted Number of loop initialization primitive frames transmitted.
Tx Offline Sequences Number of offline primitives transmitted by the port.
Total Rx Frames Total number of frames received by the port.
Total Rx Words Total number of words received by the port.
Total Tx Frames Total number of frames transmitted by the port.
Total Tx Words Total number of words transmitted by the port.
Tx Link Resets Number of link reset primitives sent from this port to an
attached port.
