HP UX Internet and Networking Software Propdelay, Userdefparm1 through userdefparm3, Portname

Administration Commands

define_cn

Data is transmitted over a line that is protected against physical and radiation tapping.

prop_delay

Propagation delay. The time that a signal takes to travel the length of the link. Specify one of the following values, according to the type of link:

PROP_DELAY_MINIMUM

Minimum propagation delay.

PROP_DELAY_LAN

Delay is less than .5 microseconds (typical for a LAN).

PROP_DELAY_TELEPHONE

Delay is in the range .5–50 microseconds (typical for a telephone network).

PROP_DELAY_PKT_SWITCHED_NET

Delay is in the range 50–250 microseconds (typical for a packet-switched network).

PROP_DELAY_SATELLITE

Delay is greater than 250 microseconds (typical for a satellite link).

PROP_DELAY_MAXIMUM

Maximum propagation delay.

user_def_parm_1 through user_def_parm_3

User-defined parameters, which you can use to include other characteristics not covered by the previous parameters. Each of these parameters must be set to a value in the range 0–255.

port_name

Array of port names defined on the connection network. Each port name is an 8-byte string consisting of lo- cally displayable characters that must match the name of a previously-defined port. The port type must be a network type that supports connection networks (Ethernet, Token Ring, FDDI, Enterprise Extender).

If the fqcn_name parameter identifies an existing connection network, the new ports are added to it (without changing any ports already defined on the connection network).

2.11.2 Returned Parameters

No parameters are returned by SNAplus2 when this command executes successfully.

2.11.3 Error Return Codes

If the command cannot be executed, SNAplus2 returns a primary return code to indicate the type of error and a secondary return code to provide specific details about the reason for unsuccessful execution.

Parameter Check

If the command does not execute because of a parameter error, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:

primary_rc

PARAMETER_CHECK

secondary_rc

Possible values are:

DEF_LINK_INVALID_SECURITY
