Channel Group 2 view
Use the
Channel Group 2
settings for a Stratix 5410 switch to:- Monitor the health status of LANs on the Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) network.
- Reset the diagnostic counter.
The information is only available when online and Link Redundancy Entity (LRE) is enabled.
The Parallel Redundancy Protocol requires two separate physical networks to operate. These networks are labeled LAN A and LAN B.
Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Network Mode | Shows that the device profile is online to a Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) capable device. |
Diagnostics | Displays counters and status information for each LAN. |
Network Status | Displays the state of the LAN.
|
Network Fault Count | Displays the number of times the Network Status parameter changed from OK to Fault since the last Reset Counters operation or powerup. |
Transmit Count | Displays the number of PRP-tagged frames transmitted over each LAN since the last Reset Counters operation or powerup. |
Receive Count | Displays the number of PRP-tagged frames received on each LAN since the last Reset Counters operation or powerup. |
Wrong LAN Count | Displays the number of PRP-tagged frames received on the wrong LAN since the last Reset Counters operation or powerup. For example, a LAN A PRP-tagged frame is received on LAN B (or vice versa). Usually indicative of a wire cross-connected from LAN A to LAN B. |
Unique Entry Count | Displays the number of PRP-tagged frames received on one LAN, but not received on the other LAN, since the last Reset Counters operation or powerup. Usually indicative of a loss of connection or loss of frames on the other LAN. |
Duplicate Entry Count | Displays the number of PRP-tagged frames received on this LAN that were already received on another LAN since the last Reset Counters operation or powerup. Tip: This count increments during normal operation, and is not an indication of a fault. |
Multiple Entry Count | Displays the number of PRP-tagged frames for which multiple duplicates were received on each LAN since the last Reset Counters operation or powerup. Usually indicative of a misconfigured network (such as a routing loop). |
Refresh | Retrieves and displays the latest values from the device. |
Reset Counters | Sets the PRP counter values to zero and then refreshes the values with the current counter values. |
