-
- The rreesseett and hhaalltt options control the adapter's connection
- to the ring. The rreesseett option resets the adapter, connecting
- it back to the ring. The hhaalltt option halts the adapter,
- disconnecting it from the ring.
-
-
- The fflluusshh option flushes the driver's transmit queue.
-
-
- The aaddddrr option prints out the adapter's network address in
- the standard aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff form.
-
-
- The ddeebbuugg option toggles debugging output. The messages are
- written to the syslog, and really slow down the adapter.
- Useful for seeing how the adapter works.
-
-
- The ssttaattss option prints out adapter statistics. It first
- reports the number of packets and bytes sent and received.
- Then comes an array of receive reaped numbers. Each array
- slot denotes a number of received packets, and the value in
- that slot is the number of times that the driver reaped that
- number of packets in one interrupt. Following this is an
- array counting packet sizes, both sent and received.
-
-
- The eecchhoo, ssiizzee, and rreeppeeaatt options let hosts be pinged over
- FDDI. The argument to eehhccoo is the Sprite ID of a host to
- ping. The argument to ssiizzee controls the size of the RPC to
- ping with. And rreeppeeaatt controls the number of times the host
- is echoed. Timing numbers are reported when the echoes fin-
- ish.
-
-
- The rreegg and eerrrrlloogg options print out some of the adapter's
- internal state. rreegg prints out the contents of the
- adapter's registers. eerrrrlloogg prints out the internal and
- external error codes written by the adapter when it halts.
- These codes should be zero during normal operation.
-
-
- The ssyysslloogg option was intended to control whethere output
- would be printed on the syslog or on the terminal that
- invoked ffddddiiccmmdd. This is only partially supported.
