Open Status

This field displays the result of the last “open” command or the last attempt by

did in fact open onto the ring, or if an error occurred. This field may display any
one of the following:

An open command has not been issued.

Bad Param

The open command could not be completed because the
parameters did not allow for the station to be opened
onto the ring.

Lobe Test Failed

The lobe media check has failed for the management
station.

Signal Loss

A signal loss condition has been detected at the
management station’s receiver input during the open
process.

Insertion Timeout

The management station has failed to logically insert on
the ring before the insertion timer expires.

Purge Failed

The management station has timed out when attempting
a ring purge after becoming the active monitor: that is,
the management station was unable to receive its own
ring purge MAC frames.

Beaconing

The management station received a beacon MAC frame
after physically inserting into the ring.

Duplicate MAC

Another station on the ring has the same MAC address

Parameter Server (RPS) is present on the ring, but it does
not respond to a request initialization MAC frame.

Remove Received

The management station received a remove adapter
MAC frame during the insertion process.

Open

The open command was completed successfully.

to be reported at one time; in this case, the number displayed would be the sum of
the codes of the last errors recorded. The following table lists the possible errors
and their corresponding error codes:
