MEMBERS
  station_state
      Specifies the state of the adapter with respect to the Token Ring --
      on, off, or loopback.

  laststationid[8]
      Specifies the station ID of the station that last successfully
      performed a PMF change, add, or remove operation.

  station_uid[8]
      Specifies the UID of the station subentity. This member is set when the
      subentity is created.

  link_state
      Specifies the state of the link entity.

  link_uid[8]
      Specifies the UID of the link subentity, which is set when the
      subentity is created.

  neg_trt
      Specifies the ANSI media access (MAC) parameter T_Neg -- the negotiated
      value of the token rotation timer.

  dup_add_flag
      Specifies the summary output from the duplicate address test algorithms
      executed by a station.

  upstream[6]
      Specifies the data link address of the nearest upstream neighbor MAC.
      If no upstream neighbor has been heard or if the neighbor information
      has timed out, this member contains the null address 00-00-00-00-00-00.

  oldupstream[6]
      Specifies the previous non-null value of the upstream member or the
      null address if upstream has never been non-null.

  upstreamdaf
      Specifies the upstream neighbor's duplicate address status, as reported
      by the NIF frame. This member is meaningful only if the upstream member
      is not null.

  downstream[6]
      Specifies the data link address of the nearest downstream neighbor MAC.
      If no downstream neighbor has been heard or if the downstream neighbor
      information has timed out, this member contains the null address.

  olddownstream[6]
      Specifies the previous non-null value of the downstream member or the
      null address if downstream has never been non-null.

  ring_purge_state
      Specifies the state of the ring purger function.

  frame_strip_mode
      Specifies the current MAC frame stripping mode.

  ring_error
      Specifies the reason code for the most recent link error or no error if
      no link error has occurred.

  loopback
      Specifies TRUE if the link has been set up to receive frames
      transmitted by it. This allows loopback testing on the ring or by using
      one of the physical port loopback modes.

  ring_latency
      Specifies the current ring latency as measured by the link.

  ring_purge_addr[8]
      Specifies the data link address of the currently elected ring purger.

  phy_state
      Specifies the current state of the PPC state machine for this physical
      port.

  phy_uid[8]
      Specifies the UID of the physical port subentity. This member is set
      when the subentity is created.

  neighbor_phy_type
      Specifies the type of the neighbor physical port, or unknown if there
      is no connection yet.

  phy_link_error
      Specifies the link error monitor current estimate of the link error
      rate. For an attribute value of N, the actual rate is on the order of
      10^-N.

  broken_reason
      Specifies the reason why the physical port is in the broken state. A
      value of 0 (zero) indicates that the physical port is not in the broken
      state.

  rej_reason
      Specifies the reason why the physical port is in the failed or watch
      state. This member is not meaningful when the physical port is in any
      other state.

DESCRIPTION
  The fddi_dna_status data structure defines the FDDI status information.
  This data structure is embedded in an fddiDNA_status data structure. It is
  used when returning counter information for the SIOCRDCTRS and SIOCRDZCTRS
  ioctl commands.
