Defining the Number of Back-to-Back Packets to
Transmit
The pace_size parameter (see Table C–6) defines the maximum number of
back-to-back packets you can transmit at one time. If the value is zero, there is no
limit to the number of back-to-back packets that can be transmitted.
TABLE C–6 Back-to-back Packet Transmission Capability
Parameter Values Description
pace_size
1 to 255
0
= Number of back-to-back packets transmitted at one time
= No limit to the number of back-to-back packets that can
be transmitted (default)
Reporting Transceiver Capabilities
Table C–7 describes the read-only transceiver capabilities. These parameters define
the capabilities of the hardware. The internal transceiver can support all of these
capabilities.
TABLE C–7 Read-Only Transceiver Capabilities
Parameter Values Description
autoneg_cap 0
1
Local transceiver capability of the hardware
= Not capable of auto-negotiation
= Auto negotiation capable
100fdx_cap 0
1
Local transceiver capability of the hardware; initialized at startup = Not
100Mbit/sec full-duplex capable
= 100Mbit/sec full-duplex capable
100hdx_cap
0
1
Local transceiver capability of the hardware; initialized at startup
= Not 100Mbit/sec half-duplex capable
= 100Mbit/sec half-duplex capable
