Register Definitions
The LXT980/980A register set is composed of multiple 32-bit registers of the types listed in
Table
49
. All register addresses are hexadecimal.
5.1
Counter Registers
Table 50
shows bit assignments. When reading a 64-bit counter, read the lower address (lower 32
bits of counter) first, followed by the upper address. The first read causes all 64 bits to be
simultaneously latched into an internal holding register. The second read is directed to this holding
register. The statistics bit must be set off to write to the counters.
5.1.1
Port Counter Registers
The Port Counter descriptions in
Table 51
are intended to be illustrative. For the exact definition of
these counters, refer to the Repeater MIB, RFC 1516. All counters count packets, octets or events
that were received at each port. In the descriptions, the length of a packet never includes preamble
or framing bits (start of frame, end of frame, dribble bits, etc.), but an
“
event
”
does include these
items.

01X to Port 2, 02X to Port 3, 03X to Port 4 and 04X to Port 5).
