Applicable connection types: UBR
Default: enable (1)
ForeSight
The ForeSight (FST) flow control mechanism.
RBA Rate Up
The ABR rate adjustment up. Also known as RIF,
Rate Increase Factor, which controls the amount
by which the cell transmission rate may increase
upon receipt of an RM-cell. The following
configurations apply:
Units:
- For ABRSTD connections, this object
should be in 2^n,
where n = 0 - 15
- For FST connections, this object should be
in absolute values of cells per second up to
the PCR.
- A new value should always be given for
this object when a connection is changed
from one type to the other, since they
require different units.
Applicable connection types: ABRSTD,
ABRFST, ATFST
Dependency: VSVD = enable (1)
Default:
- FST: max [PCR/128, 10]
- ABRSTD: 128
Applicable cards: BXM, ASI-T3/E3
RBA Rate Down
The ABR Rate adjustment down, also known as
RDF, Rate Decrease Factor, which controls the
amount by which the cell transmission rate may
decrease upon receipt of an RM-cell. The following
configurations apply:
Units:
- For ABRSTD connections, this object
should be in 2^n, where n=0 - 15.
- For FST connections, this object should be
in percentage (0%-100%)
Applicable connection types: ABRSTD,
ABRFST, ATFST
Dependency: VSVD = enable (1)
Default:
- FST: 93
- ABRSTD: 16
Applicable cards: BXM, ASI-T3/E3
QIR Timeout
The QIR timeout value. Also known as ACR
Decrease Time Factor (ADTF,) which is the time
permitted between sending RM-cells before the
rate is decreased to ICR. The following
configurations apply:
Unit: milliseconds
