Enabling or Disabling Status Report Frames
By default, the FDDI line generates status report frames (SRFs) for its
implemented events (for example, high bit errors, topology changes, trace status
events, MAC frame error condition, port LER condition, and MAC duplicate
address condition).
You can disable the line from or reenable the line to send status report frames. We
recommend enabling SRFs to ensure that your FDDI network is ANSI-compliant.
Enabling or Disabling Duplicate Addressing
By default, the BayStream software implements an optional ANSI duplicate
address test involving periodic transmission of Network Service Address Network
Interface Function (NSA NIF) frames to the source.
You can disable or reenable duplicate addressing on an interface.
Entering User Data
You can enter up to 32 alphanumeric characters of site-specific information to be
attached to SIF frames.
