1609.0. "Decconcentrator 500 Device Counter ?'s." by CSC32::P_YOUNGMEYER () Fri Mar 03 1995 09:52

    Can anyone tell me, on the DecConcentrator 500, Show device counters I
    am seeing thousands of "Power Ups:"  and an almost corresponding amount
    of "Unsolicited Resets:".   Can anyone tell me what type of packets
    these are, I suspect they are looking at station packets or mac
    packets, but can anyone tell me specifically what they are looking at
    to increment these counters.
    
    Thanks

    These are not packets, they are counters incremented for the 
    implied conditions, power ups get incremented each time power 
    is applied, unsolicited resets are soft resets, hardware, logic, 
    some kind of error. 
    
    How are getting to these counters? What firmware revision is 
    loaded in the concentrator? What are the module types, hardware
    revisions?
    
    If you want to take this off line until a resolution is found,
    mail me at NPSS::TAYLOR.
