Ethernet SNMP Module Installation and Reference Guide ( J2603B) 1995-10

TEstlink
To run a test of the link between the hub and another IEEE 802.3 device.
Note The destination device must be able to send an IEEE 802.2 Test
Response packet upon receipt of an IEEE 802.2 Test command packet.
Any HP AdvanceStack Hub, HP SNMP-managed bridge, or HP router
will respond with the correct packet. HP LAN adapters can be setup up
easily to respond to these standard Test command packets.
You will be prompted for the 12-digit hexadecimal station address (also
called MAC address, Ethernet address, or physical address) of the
destination device. You will then be prompted for the number of test packets
to send.
If any errors are reported during this test, there may be a fault on the link
being tested or on the destination device. For more information about
testing network links, see chapter 3, “Troubleshooting”.
THinwatch <ON|OFF>
To enable
(
set to ON
)
or disable
(
set to OFF
)
Thinwatch on the
ThinLAN port. With Thinwatch enabled, the Fault and ThinLAN port LEDs
will flash whenever the ThinLAN port is auto-segmented.
(
If you don’t
enable Thinwatch, the LEDs won’t flash.
)
Auto-segmentation occurs on the ThinLAN port when it is enabled but has
no connector on it, the connected segment is not properly terminated, or it
experiences excessive collisions.
The default setting is disabled. Enable Thinwatch if the ThinLAN port is
being used; disable Thinwatch if the ThinLAN port is not being used.
Example: TH ON
(
This enables Thinwatch.
