and the community name.
DCM Timeout Ð The time, in thousandths of a second, between retry
attempts to the Token Ring device that will be performed after a failure has
occurred. The default value is 3000 (hence, a 3-second interval).

Poll Interval Ð The time interval, in seconds, that SpectroSERVER will
read all attributes of the TRBMIM model that are ßagged as ÒPOLLED.Ó
