DEFINE_PORT
Chapter 3 347
Length of port-specific data. The data should be
concatenated to the basic VCB structure.
def_data.link_spec_data_len
Length of link-specific data. The link-specific data
should be concatenated immediately following the
port-specific data.
For details of these parameters, see “DEFINE_LS”; the
values specified on DEFINE_PORT are used as
defaults for processing incoming calls (when the LS
name is not initially known).
For SDLC, the parameters in the stub_spec_data
structure within this structure are reserved.
Port-specific data for SDLC:
mux_info.dlc_type
Type of the DLC. Set this to AP_IMPL_SDLC_SL
idle_timer
Timer used to detect a completely inactive line. The
line is considered idle when nothing (not even frame
data that is not valid) has been received in this time.
The timer is specified in milliseconds.
idle_timer_retry
Number of times to rerun the idle timer before failure.
This is used in conjunction with
idle_timer
to provide
the overall idle timeout period. This should be longer
than either the nonproductive receive timer or the
contact and disconnect timers.
A value of 0xFFFF indicates an unlimited retry count.A
value of 0x0001 indicates that an outage should be
generated after the first timer expiry.
np_rcv_timer
For SDLC secondary, the nonproductive receive
timeout corresponds to the time allowed for receipt of a
valid frame from the primary. This is usually set in
conjunction with the retry limit to give a long timeout
before outage (such as 30). The timer is specified in
