Appendix A Command Reference
rpr-ieee fairness weight value
rpr-ieee fairness weight value
Use this command to configure the fairness weight of an IEEE 802.17b based RPR station.
Syntax Description
Defaults The default is 0.
Command Modes IEEE 802.17b based RPR interface configuration
Usage Guidelines Weighted fairness is used to allow one card greater access (that is, transmission rate) to the ring than
other cards have. This command sets the fairness weight of the particular IEEE 702.17b based RPR
interface. By default when a ring is congested, fairness controls ring traffic to allow each station the same
amount of added traffic (or transmission rate). A higher fairness weight value on one interface allows
the station to add traffic at a higher rate during periods of congestion.
Examples In this example, interface is shortened to int.
router(config)# int rpr-ieee 0
Router(config-if)# rpr-ieee fairness weight 3
