Line Statistics

This selection displays statistics for one line per viewing page. Displayed are the Line ID
(such as FET1 for Ethernet board one), LAN address if it is a LAN line, and slot number
where the board is located. If a Line ID is not entered as a parameter, the first LAN line will
be displayed.

To clear the counters, the update option ( ,u ) must be used and the supervisory password entered
(unless no password was configured). When properly enabled, the PF4 key clears all counters. If
not manually reset, all the displayed error counters are automatically reset upon rollover of one or
more of the counters. This automatic reset ensures that all counters are synchronized.

Three examples of Line Statistics are given, one for Ethernet (ETH), HSC, and Token
Ring (TRC).
