MAC 1 - Enter new value [655]:
Setting the Not
Copied Threshold
The NotCopiedThreshold attribute determines when a MAC condition report
is generated because too many frames could not be copied. Not-copied
frames occur when there is no buffer space available in the station (which
indicates that there is congestion in the station).
SMT monitors the ratio of frames not copied to all frames transmitted within
a certain period of time. The NotCopiedThreshold determines at what
percentage the frames not copied are significant enough to report to
network management. The threshold value is expressed in a percentage
based on 65536 (or 100%). For example, to set the threshold at 1%, the
value is 655 (the system default). The lower you set the percentage, the
more likely SMT will report a problem.
To set the NotCopiedThreshold:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
fddi mac NotCopiedThreshold
You are prompted for a MAC number and new threshold value.The Switch
2200 has one MAC, which appears in brackets.
2 Press [Return].
3 Enter the new threshold value.
See the following example:
Select MAC [1]:
MAC 1 - Enter new value [655]:
