Out-of-order frame reassembly (OoOFR) reassembles out-of-order frames as
they are received, minimizing network congestion by eliminating the
retransmission of frames and exchanges. To configure OoOFR, use either
QConvergeConsole GUI or CLI.

To enable OoOFR with QConvergeConsole GUI:
1. In the QConvergeConsole system tree pane on the left, select a Fibre
Channel port.
2. In the content pane on the right, click Parameters.
3. Click the Advanced HBA Parameters tab.

# qaucli -n <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> EnableReceiveOutOfOrderFrame 1
# qaucli -n <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> EO 1
Where:
To disable OoOFR in the noninteractive mode of QConvergeConsole CLI, issue
one of the following commands:
# qaucli -n <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> EnableReceiveOutOfOrderFrame 0
# qaucli -n <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> EO 0
hba instance = Adapter number (use the -g command to find)
hba wwpn = Worldwide port name of the adapter
