Switch Configuration SmartStack STS16-20D/STS16-20R Token Ring Switches Installation and User Guide
Enabled
Shows the administrative state of this port. Possible values are
Yes
(enabled) or
No
(disabled). The default value is
Yes
.
Status
This field is for informational purposes only, and shows if the port is currently
inserted into the ring.
Media Type
This field is for informational purposes only, and shows the media type of the port.
Possible value is RJ-45.
Cfg Loss Threshold
Configuration loss occurs when a port completes a connection, allows data traffic
to flow, and subsequently closes. This threshold is used to control the number of
configuration losses that can occur within the
Cfg Loss Sampling Interval
. When
the threshold is exceeded, the port is disabled and must be enabled via a manager.
Possible values are
1
100
. The default value is
8
.
Cfg Loss Sampling Interval
Specifies a sampling period in minutes. The number of configuration losses
occurring within this interval is compared to the
Cfg Loss Threshold
to determine
if a port should be disabled. Possible values are
1
60
minutes. The default value is
1
.
Priority Threshold
The highest Token-Ring frame priority that will go to the low priority transmit
queue. Possible values are
0
7
. The default value is
3
.
Min Transmit Priority
The minimum Token-Ring frame priority that will be used for transmits. Possible
values are
0
6
. The default value is
4
.
Ring Parameter Server
Configures whether this port should respond to the MAC Frame Request
Initialization (
Enabled
) or not (
Disabled
= default). When the ring parameter server
is enabled, other network interfaces on the ring will be informed about the CRF ring
number. Only one device on the ring should act as a ring parameter server.
Early Token Release
Determines whether the port is enabled for Early Token Release (ETR). Possible
values are
Yes
and
No
. The default is
Yes
. If Early Token Release is set to
Yes
and
the media speed is 4 Mbps, the switch will force Early Token Release to
No
.
