Setting the Configuration
________________________________________________________________
18 TCP/IP AXEL Platine Terminal
The new value will be used for the next connection made.
2.4.2 - 'window' Option
This parameter defines the size (in bytes) of the Platine terminal TCP window.
By default, it is set to 1000 bytes.
This value can be modified but must be higher than the 'mss' parameter.
If too many (received) frames are rejected by the Platine terminal, the 'window'
parameter may be decreased.
The new value will be used for the next connection made.
2.4.3 - 'ttl' Option
This option is used to set the value of the 'Time To Live' parameter.
Depending on the network topology, the Platine terminal can address a host via
several sub-networks linked together with routers.
To prevent lost frames circulating, for ever, around the network, a limit is set to
the maximum number of routers a frame can pass through. This parameter is
called 'ttl' and set to 255 by default.
Every frame transmitted by the Platine terminal has a ‘ttl’ value set. Each time
such a frame passes through a router, its 'ttl' value is decreased by one. When
the 'ttl' value reaches zero, the frame is destroyed by the router.
The new value will be used for the next connection made.
2.4.4 - 'noise' Option
This option is used to set the value of the 'Threshold Noise Rejection'
parameter for '10BaseT' Platine Terminals.
This 'Threshold Noise Rejection' represents the AX3000’s sensitivity to the
signals of the network cable. The two available values are 'Low' (default value)
and 'High'.
