Figure 111: The Device Status View.
The device status view has the following elements:
Devices
Shows the name and the subsystem of the primary and – if present – the secondary device.
By clicking on the “Wink” button the corresponding L-IP Redundant can be winked (see
4.4.9). Further the device currently selected by the plug-in is shown (“selected”) and if the
plug-in can communicate with the device (“ok”/”fail”). Finally the unique node ID of the
monitoring node on the routers is given.
Loop Monitor
Shows whether the loop is open, closed or bus loop monitoring disabled.
Twin Monitor
Shows the twin router status of the device. This includes:
Twin Router: Shows whether the device has a twin router installed.
Status: Shows whether the device is primary, secondary, still negotiating or the
secondary has temporary taken over since the primary failed.
CEA-709/CEA-852 Communication: Shows whether its twin router is reachable via the
CEA-709 and CEA-852 segment respectively.
CEA-709/CEA-852 Forwarding: Shows whether the device forwards significantly
lower amount of packets to its CEA-709 and CEA-852 side respectively (warning) or
does not forward any packets anymore at all (error).
Node Monitoring Status List
This list shows all the nodes in the node list of the device with the current status. If a node is
not reachable/offline or the ring is open and the node is only reachable via one loop port the
