MN/22137, rev 1 Vipersat Configuration
A default setting (95%) is provided, but there may be unique network configura-
tions which require modifying the STDMA Slot Capacity value.
STDMA Switch Delay
In order to minimize unnecessary switching from STDMA to SCPC due to tran-
sient conditions, such as a temporary spike in network traffic for example, a
switch delay parameter is provided. This setting is used to specify a delay before
a switch occurs.
A default value (10 seconds) is provided, but this value can be changed to
accommodate a unique network configuration or application. To change this
setting, enter W at the command prompt in figure 3-43 to display the screen
shown in figure 3-45.

Percent Allocation
The Percent Allocation menu item, shown in figure 3-43, allows adding a fixed
percentage to the channel bandwidth request to accommodate additional band-
width requirements which may occur after a switch is made from STDMA to
SCPC mode.
To change this setting, enter E at the command prompt to display the screen
shown in figure 3-46.
