NSP Process Problems: TLAM
NSP Process Problems: TLAM
In an OSI/TS subsystem, TLAM is not considered to be a network service provider; this
function is included in the TSP process. Nevertheless, TLAM is a distinct process that
can be analyzed separately when troubleshooting problems in the Data Link Layer and
below.
SCF Commands
You can use the following command to display the total number of 802.2 frames as well
as the types of frames (all UI (unnumbered information) frames) for the NSP process
$LAM1. This command also returns a count of the number of LAN-related timeouts,
bad addresses received, and so on:
STATS SERVICE $LAM1.#L28022
The following screen is returned for this example command:
Remember that this command returns information on all the protocols running on the
LAN controller, not just those related to OSI/TS.
The following command displays the total number of 802.3 frames transmitted and
received for the NSP process $LAM2. This command also returns a count of the
number of frames that were discarded, overruns, FCS errors, and collisions detected:
