Parameter Description
east Pertains to configuration for eastbound span traffic.
west Pertains to configuration for westbound span traffic.
rate The rate, expressed in milliseconds, at which the slow protection timer
sends a protection message. This occurs after a protection event on a
particular (east or west) span. The rate is stated in 100-millisecond
increments, with a value of 1 to 10. For example, a rate of 2 would be
equivalent to 200 milliseconds.
