Switch Configuration

SmartStack STS16-20D/STS16-20R Token Ring Switches Installation and User Guide

Enabled

Shows the administrative state of this port. Possible values are Yes (enabled) or No
(disabled). The default value is Yes.

Status

This field is for informational purposes only, and shows if the port is currently
inserted into the ring.

Media Type

This field is for informational purposes only, and shows the media type of the port.
Possible value is RJ-45.

Cfg Loss Threshold

Configuration loss occurs when a port completes a connection, allows data traffic
to flow, and subsequently closes. This threshold is used to control the number of
configuration losses that can occur within the Cfg Loss Sampling Interval. When
the threshold is exceeded, the port is disabled and must be enabled via a manager.

Possible values are 1100. The default value is 8.

Cfg Loss Sampling Interval

Specifies a sampling period in minutes. The number of configuration losses
occurring within this interval is compared to the Cfg Loss Threshold to determine
if a port should be disabled. Possible values are 160 minutes. The default value is
1

.

Priority Threshold

The highest Token-Ring frame priority that will go to the low priority transmit
queue. Possible values are 07. The default value is 3.

Min Transmit Priority

The minimum Token-Ring frame priority that will be used for transmits. Possible
values are 06. The default value is 4.

Ring Parameter Server

Configures whether this port should respond to the MAC Frame Request
Initialization (Enabled) or not (Disabled = default). When the ring parameter server
is enabled, other network interfaces on the ring will be informed about the CRF ring
number. Only one device on the ring should act as a ring parameter server.

Early Token Release

Determines whether the port is enabled for Early Token Release (ETR). Possible
values are Yes and No. The default is Yes. If Early Token Release is set to Yes and
the media speed is 4 Mbps, the switch will force Early Token Release to No.
