The number of times that a phantom transition is allowed to cause a port to
unwrap is determined by the bcn_threshold parameter which can be set for
each module using the following command:
SET MODULE {slot.port} BCN_THRESHOLD {0-255}
Once the threshold is exceeded, the port or trunk remains wrapped until the
user disables and re-enables the port. While wrapped, the port status is
BCN THRES EXCEEDED
.
Note: The bcn_threshold is reset whenever a port successfully inserts into
the ring, or the module is reset.
2. Enable/disable speed detection for each port.
You can enable/disable speed detection for the individual ports on the
passive module using the following command:
SET PORT {slot.port} SPEED_DETECT {enable|disable}
When enabled, speed detection prevents the stations from inserting into the
ring at the wrong speed. When the incorrect speed is detected, the port is
wrapped and the status of the port is changed to
SPEED MISMATCH
. The
port will unwrap when a phantom transition is detected on the port or the
port is disabled and then re-enabled by the administrator. For more
information about speed detection, please refer to 8.8.2, “Speed Detection on
Passive Modules” on page 149.
3. Set speed threshold for the module.
You can set the number of times that a phantom transition allows a wrapped
port, due to the beacon conditions, to unwrap. To do so, you can use the
following command:
SET MODULE {slot.port} SPEED_THRESHOLD {0-255}
When this threshold is reached, the port remains wrapped with the status of
SPD THRESHOLD EXCEEDED
until the administrator disables and re-enables
the port.
Note: This threshold is reset whenever a port on the module successfully
inserts into the ring.
4. Assign the module to a network segment.
Use the following command to assign the module to one of the backplane
segments or isolate it from the backplane.
SET PORT {slot.port} NETWORK {network}
Note: As a result of this command, all the ports on the module will be
assigned to the same segment.
5. Enable/disable ports.
Each port can be enabled/disabled using the following command:
SET PORT {slot.port} mode {enable|disable}
