TOKEN RING OVERVIEW
Configuration Report Server
The Configuration Report Server is a network management function that
resides on every ring in a multiple ring environment. It serves four
purposes in the Token Ring network:
• Collects information from the ring (Report NAUN Change and Report
New Monitor MAC frames) and reports this information to the AM.
This assures that information is always complete and accurate ring
configuration information.
• Requests status information from stations on its local ring as requested.
• Sets the values of operational parameters for stations on its local ring as
directed.
• Changes the configuration of its local ring by requesting a station to
remove itself from the ring as directed.
