SET MODULE BCN_THRESHOLD

SET MODULE
BCN_THRESHOLD
Use the SET MODULE BCN_THRESHOLD to set the number of times that a
CoreBuilder 5000 Token Ring port, which was removed from the ring by beacon
recovery software, is allowed to reenter the ring.
The CoreBuilder 5000 hub implements beacon recovery by wrapping ports as
needed. The port is unwrapped when a transition of phantom is detected.
The beacon threshold is the number of times that a phantom transition is
allowed to cause a port to unwrap. When the threshold is exceeded, the port
remains wrapped, with a status of BCN THRES ERROR, until you disable and
then reenable the port.
The threshold is reset whenever a port successfully inserts into the ring, or when
the module is reset.
This command is not available if beacon recovery is disabled (SET NETWORK
TOKEN_RING BCN_RECOVERY).
Format
Example
The following command sets the beacon threshold to 2:
CB5000> set module 4.1 bcn_threshold 2
Threshold set to 2.
