Configuring the CMTS
6-45
0-200 is the insertion interval.
3. To view the insertion interval, use the show cable insert-interval command in
Interface Configuration mode, as shown below:
MOT(config-if)#show cable insert-interval
Setting the Synchronization Interval
The synchronization message interval is the interval between successive
synchronization message transmissions from the cable interface to the CMs.
Follow the steps in this section to set and verify the synchronization interval:
1. To set the synchronization message interval value, use the cable sync-interval
command in Interface Configuration mode, as shown below:
MOT(config-if)#cable sync-interval {0-200}
where:
0-200 is the maximum synchronization interval set in milliseconds (msecs).
2. To verify the synchronization message interval setting, use the show
running-config command in Privileged EXEC mode. Until an interval is set, the
no sync interval entry appears in the display.
To reset the default synchronization message interval, use the no cable
sync-interval command in Interface Configuration mode, as shown below:
MOT(config-if)#no cable sync-interval {1-200}
3. To display the synchronization message interval, use the show cable
sync-interval command in Interface Configuration mode, as shown below:
MOT(config-if)#show cable sync-interval
Note: Ensure that the interface is down before setting the synchronization
message interval.
