included in Binding Acknowledgement messages sent to Mobile Nodes,
indicates when Mobile Nodes should re-register by specifying a number of
seconds prior to the expiration of their current registration.
The binding_refresh_advice_interval value must be an integer in the
range [0–262,140] and must be less than the max_binding_lifetime
value. Set the binding_refresh_advice_interval value to 0 to disable
the Binding Refresh Advice option.
-brt binding_refresh_request_threshold
The binding_refresh_request_threshold determines when mip6mod
(as a Correspondent Node) sends Binding Refresh Request messages to
registered Mobile Nodes. The binding_refresh_request_threshold is
relative to the lifetime of the Mobile Node’s current registration. The
value of binding_refresh_request_threshold is the number of seconds
prior to the expiration of the Mobile Node’s current registration that
mip6mod sends Binding Refresh Request messages requesting the Mobile
Nodes re-register.
The binding_refresh_advice_interval value must be an integer in the
range [0–262,140] and must be less than the max_binding_lifetime
value. Disable the Binding Refresh Advice option by setting the
binding_refresh_advice_interval value to 0.
-rl error_rate_limit_threshold
The number (or limit) of error messages mip6mod can send to Mobile
Nodes before entering a controlled error message rate. The
error_rate_limit_threshold value must be an integer in the range
[1–32].
The max_error_rate and min_error_rate parameters control how often
mip6mod sends error messages after it exceeds the
error_rate_limit_threshold value.
-mxr max_error_rate
The max_error_rate is the maximum rate (i.e., highest frequency)
mip6mod sends error messages at after exceeding the
error_rate_limit_threshold. The max_error_rate value, in
miliseconds, is the shorest duration (i.e., interval) between error
messages. Smaller values are shorter durations between error messages,
and therefore are faster rates. The max_error_rate value must be an
integer in the range [10–9,990] and must be less (i.e., faster) than the
min_error_rate value.
-mnr min_error_rate
The min_error_rate is the minimum rate (i.e., least frequency) mip6mod
sends error messages at after exceeding the
error_rate_limit_threshold. The min_error_rate value, in
miliseconds, is the longest duration (i.e.interval) between error messages.
Larger values are longer durations between error messages, and therefore
are slower rates. The min_error_rate value must be an integer in the
range [20–10,000] and must be greater (i.e., slower) than the
max_error_rate value.
Example: mip6admin setconfiguration -bl 600 -ll warn -mhb 50000
