Open/Opened BB_credit

Open/Opened BB_credit

4

The number is used to specifies the maximum number of R_RDY's an FL_Port
can issue (provided buffers are available) at the beginning of each loop
tenancy. Configuring a higher value allows NL_Ports to send out more frames
to the Fabric in a loop, and can increase performance especially in bigger
loops.

Frame Collection

Pressing , while

Frame Collection

is selected, displays:

Frame Collection

Method? Bundle/Piling

This command specifies two frame collection methods, bundle and piling.
Using bundling, frames are separated in different queues based on
source/destination pairs. Piling accumulates frame based on destination
AL_PA. Piling can minimize loop traffic by reducing overhead and increases
the loop efficiency.

To set, press for Bundle or for Piling.

Reset to Default

Pressing , while

Reset to Default

is selected, displays:

Reset to Default

Accept? Yes No

Selecting the Yes option then pressing causes all values in the
Configuration Menu to reset to default conditions. Once the Ethernet IP
address and the switchname are changed, they are not reset to default values.

NOTE: Resetting the Switch to default causes all configuration settings, names, and
passwords entered to be reset to default settings, except the IP address and switchname.
