Local to Remote Protocol Compression
The Local to Remote Protocol Compression Þeld determines whether or not the
local PPP entity uses Protocol Compression when transmitting packets to the
remote PPP entity.
Remote to Local Protocol Compression
The Remote to Local Protocol Compression Þeld determines whether or not the
remote PPP entity uses Protocol Compression when transmitting packets to the
local PPP entity.
Local to Remote AC Compression
The Local to Remote AC Compression Þeld determines whether or not the local
PPP entity uses Address and Control (AC) Compression when transmitting
packets to the remote PPP entity.
Remote to Local AC Compression
The Remote to Local AC Compression Þeld determines whether or not the remote
PPP entity uses Address and Control (AC) Compression when transmitting
packets to the local PPP entity.
Transmit FCS Size
The Transmit FCS Size Þeld displays the size of the Frame Check Sequence (FCS),
in bits, that the local node generates when sending packets to the remote node.
Currently, only a 16 bit FCS is supported.
Receive FCS Size
The Receive FCS Size Þeld displays the size of the Frame Check Sequence (FCS),
in bits, that the remote node generates when sending packets to the local node.
Currently, only a 16 bit FCS is supported.
The Dot5 Errors Statistics Window
The Dot5 Errors menu option invokes the Dot5 Errors Statistics window, which
enables you to view IEEE 802.5 error statistics reported for a Token Ring bridge
interface.
To access the Dot5 Errors Statistics window
from the Bridge Status window:
1. Click on the desired Port button ( ) to display the port menu.
2. Drag down to select Dot5 Errors…. The device port Dot5 Errors Statistics
window, Figure 4-8, will appear.
