ProPerty definitions
Denitionsofthepropertiesforwhichstatisticalinformationisreportedappearsinthelistbelow.
• TimeLastReset – Time in minutes since the system has been running.
• FramesSent – Number of frames sent since last reset.
• FramesReceived – Number of frames received since last reset.
• WordsSent – Number of words sent since last reset.
• WordsReceived – Number of words received since last reset.
• LIPCount – Loop Initialization Primitive Sequence. This primitive sequence applies only to the arbitrated
loop topology. It is transmitted by an L_Port to initialize or re-initialize the loop.
• NOSCount – Not Operational Primitive Sequence. This primitive sequence is used during link initialization
between two N_Ports in the point-to-point topology or an N_Port and an F_Port in the fabric topology.
NOSissenttoindicatethatthetransmittingporthasdetectedalinkfailureorisofine.Theexpected
response to a port sending NOS is the OLS primitive sequence.
• ErrorFrames – FC devices propagate handshake signals back-and-forth requesting and acknowledging
eachbytetransferred.FCtransfersoccurinoneframeofdataatatime.Inthiscase,thevaluereectsthe
number of frames with errors.
• DumpedFrames–Thiseldspeciesthenumberofframesdumpedduetoalackofhostbuffers.
• LinkFailureCount – Number of times the link has failed. Can be caused by a disconnected link or a bad
berelement.
• LossSyncCount – Number of times a loss of sync has occurred since last reset.
• PrimitiveSeqErrorCount – An ordered set transmitted repeatedly and used to establish and maintain a link.
LR, LRR, NOS, and OLS are primitive sequences used to establish an active link in a connection between
two N_Ports or an N_Port and an F_Port.
LIP, LPB, and LPE are primitive sequences used in the Arbitrated Loop topology for initializing the loop
and enabling or disabling an L_Port.
• InvalidWordSentCount – Number of invalid words sent since last reset.
• InvalidCRCCount – Invalid Cyclical Redundancy Count. Number of frames received with an invalid CRC
since last reset.
• InitiatorIOCount – I/O Count on the initiator on the host side.

LUN Mapping must be enabled in order for ASUS DS300f G2 to recognize a Fibre Channel. See "Enabling LUN
Mapping (CLU)" on page 156
To view Fibre Channel initiators:
1. From the Main Menu, highlight Fibre Channel Management and press Enter.
2. Highlight Fibre Channel Initiators and press Enter.
A list of all currently logged-in initiators appears on the screen.
