HP-UX SNAplus2 R7 Administration Command Reference

Administration Commands
define_sdlc_ls
If the LS is a leased SDLC link, you are recommended to set this parameter to a non-zero value to ensure
that the link is always available.
restart_on_normal_deact
Specifies whether SNAplus2 should attempt to reactivate the LS if it is deactivated normally by the remote
system. Possible values are:
YES
If the remote system deactivates the LS normally, SNAplus2 attempts to reactivate it, using the same
retry timer and count values as for reactivating a failed LS (the
react_timer and react_timer_retry
parameters above).
NO
If the remote system deactivates the LS normally, SNAplus2 does not attempt to reactivate it.
If the LS is a host link (specified by the adj_cp_type parameter), or is automatically started when the node is
started (the initially_active parameter is set to
YES), this parameter is ignored; SNAplus2 always attempts to
reactivate the LS if it is deactivated normally by the remote system (unless react_timer_retry is zero).
contact_timer
Timeout required before a SNRM or XID is retransmitted in the event of nonacknowledgment (used for
primary SDLC only). This value must be greater than the no response (T1) timeout value no_resp_timer.
The contact_timer parameter is specified in milliseconds.
This timer is also used for special pre-activation polling.
contact_timer_retry
Number of times transmission and retransmission of a contact frame (such as SNRM) is allowed using
the timeout specified on the contact_timer parameter before SNAplus2 changes to the timeout specified on
contact_timer2.
Specify a value in the range 1–65,535. A value of 65,535 indicates an unlimited retry count. A value of
1 indicates that the switch to the slow poll should be made after the first timer expires.
contact_timer2
Slow poll contact timer, in milliseconds. When the contact timer retry count expires, SNAplus2 continues to
poll using this timer. This prevents leased (multi-drop) links from being flooded by poll frames for absent
stations. This value should be greater than the value specified on the contact_timer parameter.
contact_timer_retry2
The slow poll contact timer retry—the number of times transmission and retransmission of a contact frame
(such as SNRM) is allowed on the slow cycle before the link is assumed to have failed.
Specify a value in the range 1–65,535. A value of 65,535 indicates an unlimited retry count. A value of
1 indicates that the link is assumed to have failed after the slow poll timer first expires.
disc_timer
Timeout required before a DISC is retransmitted in the event of nonacknowledgment (used for primary SDLC
only). The timer is specified in milliseconds.
The default value 10,000 (10 seconds) is intended for use with leased lines (with port_type in
define_sdlc_port set to PORT_NONSWITCHED). For switched lines, a lower value such as 1000
may be required.
disc_timer_retry
Disconnect timer retry (the number of times transmission and retransmission of a DISC is allowed).
Specify a value in the range 1–65,535. A value of 65,535 indicates an unlimited retry count. A value of
1 indicates that the link is assumed to have failed after the timer first expires.
