Subnetwork Health and Status
Subnetwork Health and Status (Subn) provides status
information from a DSU’s subnetwork (all DSUs and
DBMs assigned to that DSU’s active poll list). The
downstream network addresses and current statuses are
listed. Use the F1 and F2 keys to page through the
tributary addresses.
To access the Subnetwork Health and Status from the
top-level menu, make the following selections:
• Local (F1), or Remot (F2) and Address
• Stat
• H/S
• Subn
Results
Status messages are updated periodically. If no
downstream DSU’s are being monitored, No PList is
displayed instead of the address and status for an active
poll list member. For a list of status messages and their
meanings, see Appendix C of the COMSPHERE
3600 Series Data Service Units, Models 3610 and 3611,
Operator’s Guide.
