8: Device Ports
SLC™ Console Manager User Guide 101
Port Status and Counters
Port Counters describe the status of signals and interfaces. SLC console manager updates and
increments the port counters as signals change and data flows in and out of the system. These
counters help troubleshoot connections or diagnose problems because they give the user an
overview of the state of various parameters. By setting them to zero and then re-checking them
later, the user can view changes in status.
The chart in the middle of the page displays the flow control lines and port statistics for the device
port. The system automatically updates these values. To reset them to zeros, select the Zero port
counters checkbox in the IP Settings section of the page.
Note: Status and statistics shown on the web interface represent a snapshot in time. To
see the most recent data, you must reload the web page.
