 o  downstream neighbor

    MAC address of the downstream neighbor, if known.

 o  duplicate address flag

    Summary output of the duplicate address test algorithm.

 o  frame strip mode

    Current frame stripping mode of the MAC.

    SA match   Source address match mode of the frame stripping
               algorithm matches the source address of the frame with
               the MAC's MyLongAddress (MLA), and if a match is found,
               the frame is removed from the token ring.

    FCI        The FCIS mode counts the number of frames transmitted
    strip      since the reception of a token, and strips equal number
               of frames.

 o  loopback

    This is true if the link has been set up to receive frames
    transmitted by it. This allows loopback testing either on the
    ring or with one of the PHY port loopback modes.

 o  negotiated trt

    Negotiated token rotation timer.

 o  old downstream neighbor

    Previous value of the downstream neighbor.

 o  old upstream neighbor

    Previous value of the upstream neighbor.

 o  ring error reason

    Reason code for the most recent link error.

    duplicate      Duplicate address algorithm detected a duplicate
    address        address.
    detected

    duplicate      A duplicate token was detected on the ring.
    token
    detected

    no error       No errors have occurred on this ring.

    ring init      Ring initialization was initiated by this link to
    initiated      initialize the ring and create a token.

    ring init      Ring initialization was initiated by some other
    received       link to initialize the ring and create a token.

    ring           Ring beaconing process was initiated by this link.
    beaconing      This process in initiated as a result of serious
    initiated      ring failure, such as loss of signal or jabbering
                   station transmitting in violation of the protocol.
                   This indicates to other links on the LAN that
                   corrective action may be required.

    ring purge     Link received a token while performing a ring
    error          purge operation.

    FCI strip      Frame content independent strip operation was
    error          terminated by the receipt of a token.

    ring op        Ring state has been continually changing from
    oscillation    operational to initializing.

    directed       Link received particular beacon data.

    PC trace       PC-trace was initiated by this link.
    initiated

    PC trace       PC-trace was initiated by some other link.

 o  ring latency

    Current ring latency as measured by this link entity.

 o  ring purger state

    State of the ring purger election process.

    candidate      The Link's Ring Purger process is participating in
                   the Ring Purger election algorithm as a candidate
                   to become the Ring Purger.

    nonpurger      The Link's Ring Purger process is in an idle state
                   listening for periodic Purger Hello frames.

    off            The Link's Ring Purger process is disabled.

    purger         The Link's Ring Purger process is performing the
                   function of removing no owner frames and duplicate
                   token from the ring. In this state, the process
                   transmits periodic Purger Hello frames.

 o  state

    State of the link entity.

    broken         Attempt to turn the link on failed the
                   initialization test, or link was on, but failure
                   was detected.

    off-ready      FDDI Data Link communication services are not
                   available.

    off-fault      State entered when a link entity detects
    recovery       conditions that indicate faulty ring.

    on-ring init   Physical layer service is available and the link
                   entity enabled.

    on-ring run    Link detected that the Ring Initialization has
                   been successfully completed and the ring is
                   operational.

 o  uid

    Entity's unique identifier, which is generated when the entity is
    created.

 o  upstream neighbor

    MAC address of the upstream neighbor, if known.

 o  upstream neighbor duplicate address flag

    Default: false               Value: True or false

    Upstream neighbor's reported result of its duplicate address
    test.
