Bypass on CRC Error
Threshold*
When a port exceeds the threshold of frame CRC errors within ten
seconds in Zone 1 and in switching mode, the switch bypasses the
port. Note: The threshold can be adjusted.
Bypass on Clock Delta
Error
When this policy is enabled, the switch compares the detected line
clock through the frame and the number of fill words inserted or
deleted versus the switch’s internal clock. If the derived clock delta is
too high, the port is bypassed.
LIP on Insertion* When a port inserts into a zone, it issues LIP(F7)s to other zone
members.
Port Test Before
Insertion*
Before allowing a port to insert into a zone, the port is monitored for
proper Loop Port State Machine (LPSM) protocols. (At least one of
the devices on the port must be a Loop Initialization Master (LIM) to
follow these protocols.)
* To set this policy, ensure that Smart Insertion is enabled.
