Specifying a Maximum Unknown Frame Time
The unknown frame time specifies the maximum amount of time allowed to send
unknown frames to the BUS. For instructions on setting the unknown frame count,
see “Setting a Maximum Unknown Frame Count
” on page 8-28. By default, the
LEC can send the allowable number of unknown frames for a maximum of 1
second. However, you can specify up to 60 seconds for the maximum unknown
frame time.
For example, if you accept the default values for the unknown frame count and
frame time, a LEC can send one unknown frame within 1 second for any given
MAC address without having to initiate the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to
resolve that MAC address.
Using the BCC
To change the maximum unknown frame time, navigate to the service record
prompt (for example,
box; atm/11/1; lec-service/newyork
) and enter:
maximum-unknown-frame-time
<value>
value
is the maximum amount of time allowed (from 1 to 60 seconds) to send the
number of unknown frames.
For example, the following command changes the maximum unknown frame time
to 10 seconds:
lec-service/newyork# maximum-unknown-frame-time 5
lec-service/newyork#
