Frame Collection
is selected displays a frame collection
method.
This command specifies two frame collection methods, bundle and piling. Using bun-
dling, frames are separated in different queues based on source/destination pairs.
Using piling, frames are accumulated per destination AL_PA if NL_Ports can handle
