Collection Services data files: QAPMECL

This database file includes token-ring network file entries and lists the fields in the token-ring local area network (LAN) file.

Token-ring protocol statistics are reported for active token-ring line descriptions that are associated with token-ring ports and with asynchronous transfer mode ports that support token-ring LAN emulation.
