Deleting Inactive TGs

A change to the Cisco IOS software deletes inactive dynamic TGs from the router database. If you want to keep those inactive TGs in the Maps and SNA View cache, set the keep_deleted_tgs option in the cwbinit file to on. The following keep_deleted_tgs option is new in the cwbinit file:

# This option controls the CWBlue cache deletion of TGs that are no 
# longer reported by local topology agents. A Cisco IOS change was 
# made to delete inactive dynamic TGs from the router database.
# To delete TGs that are no longer reported by the agent,
# set this parameter to 'off'. 
# To keep those TGs in the CWBlue cache, set this parameter to 'on'. 
# If TG events are enabled, this will trigger an event if the TG 
# becomes operational again.  
# valid values:on/off
keep_deleted_tgs = off

Status	Status of the local and remote routers.
Circuit Identifier	Circuit identifier assigned by this DLSw node to this circuit. The first four octets are the DLC port ID. The second four octets are the data-link correlator.
DLC Type	DLC protocol in use between the DLSw node and the SNA resource. The possible values are QLLC, SDLC, LLC, NA, or Other.
Interface Index	Entry index of the local interface through which the SNA resource can be reached.
Route Information	For source-route bridging between the DLSw node and the SNA resource, the routing information field describing the path between the two devices. Otherwise, the value will be an octet string of zero length.
Transport Domain	Transport domain of the transport connection.
Max Messages Sendable	Number of paced SSP messages this DLSw router is authorized to send on this circuit before it must stop and wait for an additional flow control indication from the partner DLSw router.
Max Messages Receivable	Current number of paced SSP messages this DLSw router has authorized the partner DLSw router to send on this circuit before the partner DLSw must stop and wait for an additional flow control indication from this DLSw router.
Send Window Size	Current window size that this DLSw peer is using in its role as a data sender. This is the value by which the router can increase the number of messages it is authorized to send if it receives a flow control indication with the bits specifying "repeat window."
Receive Window Size	Current window size that this DLSw router uses in its role as a data receiver. This is the number of additional paced SSP messages this DLSw router can authorize its DLSw partner router to send, if this DLSw router sends a flow control indication with the bits specifying "repeat window."
Send Largest Window	Largest value (with respect to this DLSw router) granted by the partner DLSw router during the current activation of this circuit.
Receive Largest Window	Largest value granted by this DLSw router during the current activation of this circuit. This is not the largest number of messages granted at any time, but the largest window size as represented by FCIND operator bits.
Halve Window Sent	Number of Halve window operations this DLSw has sent on this circuit, in its role as a data receiver.
Halve Window Received	Number of Halve window operations this DLSw router has received on this circuit, in its role as a data sender.
Reset Window Sent	Number of Reset window operations this DLSw router has sent on this circuit in its role as a data receiver.
Reset Window Received	Number of Reset window operations this DLSw router has received on this circuit in its role as a data sender.

Explorers Received	Number of explorer packets received from the remote peer.
TCP Queue Length	Number of packets being held by the local router in the TCP output queue for the remote peer.
Packets Dropped	Number of received packets discarded by the local router (packets are dropped because of problems with the configuration, queue overflow, and protocol errors).
Local Acknowledgment	Indicates whether local acknowledgment is used for the sessions going to the remote peer.
RSRB Version	Version of RSRB used between local and remote peers.

Field	Description
Source Router	Peer router for which you queried ring information.
Ring Number	Number of the ring.
Bridge Number	Configured number of the bridge that connects this entry's ring to the virtual ring.
