Description: When this object is set to the value of open(2), the station should go into the open state. The progress and success of the open is given by the values of the objects dot5RingState and dot5RingOpenStatus. When this object is set to the value of reset(3), then the station should do a reset. On a reset, all MIB counters should retain their values, if possible. Other side affects are dependent on the hardware chip set. When this object is set to the value of close(4), the station should go into the stopped state by removing itself from the ring. Setting this object to a value of noop(1) has no effect. When read, this object always has a value of noop(1). The open(2) and close(4) values correspond to the up(1) and down(2) values of MIB-II's ifAdminStatus and ifOperStatus, i.e., the setting of ifAdminStatus and

dot5Commands affects the values of both dot5Commands and ifOperStatus.
