This section describes the OIDs for LocalTalk objects, both operational and statistical types.
LocalTalk Operational Characteristics
The following chart summarizes the OID used to get operational characteristics for NDIS drivers and their NICs on a LocalTalk network.
| Length | Q | S | Name |
| 2 | M | OID_LTALK_CURRENT_NODE_ID Current station address |
The following describes the OID_XXX listed in the preceding chart more fully.
The address the NIC is currently using.
The network-management software cannot set the current station address using the NDIS interface library. It must set this address as a configuration parameter.
LocalTalk Statistics
The following chart summarizes the OIDs used to get LocalTalk statistics.
| Length | Q | S | Name |
| 4 | M | OID_LTALK_IN_BROADCASTS Broadcasts received |
|
| 4 | M | OID_LTALK_IN_LENGTH_ERRORS Length errors |
|
| 4 | O | OID_LTALK_OUT_NO_HANDLERS No handler |
|
| 4 | O | OID_LTALK_COLLISIONS Collisions |
|
| 4 | O | OID_LTALK_DEFERS Deferrals |
|
| 4 | O | OID_LTALK_NO_DATA_ERRORS No data errors |
|
| 4 | O | OID_LTALK_RANDOM_CTS_ERRORS Random lapCTS errors |
|
| 4 | O | OID_LTALK_FCS_ERRORS FCS errors |
The following describes each of the OID_XXX listed in the preceding chart more fully.
The total number of broadcast packets received on the LocalTalk network.
The total number of packets received on the LocalTalk network for which the actual length does not match the length in the header.
The total number of good packets received on the LocalTalk network that were not accepted by a protocol.
The total number of collisions assumed on the LocalTalk network due to lack of a lapCTS reply.
The total number of times the LocalTalk network has deferred to other packets.
The total number of times the LocalTalk network has received a lapRTS packet when expecting a data packet.
The total number of times the LocalTalk network has received a lapCTS packet that a lapRTS packet has not solicited.
The total number of times the LocalTalk network has received a packet with an FCS error.
