IBM SC30-3681-08 manual Performance, Protocol

CONFIG Commands

the ping command as described in the ªPingº section of the ªMonitoring IPº chapter of Protocol Con®guration and Monitoring Reference Volume 1.)

ping-ttl seconds

The TTL (time-to-live) sent in PINGs by the IP>ping command. Default: 64. (The TTL can also be entered as a parameter of the ping command as described in the ªPingº section of the ªMonitoring IPº chapter Protocolof Con®guration and Monitoring Reference Volume 1.

ppp-echo new value

When set to 1, the device will not send PPP Echo Requests on any PPP interface. PPP Echo Requests are sent to remote devices as part of PPP maintenance to ensure the remote device is operational. Consider enabling this variable when running PPP on a slow line and using that line to transmit large data packets such that the PPP maintenance packets are not exchanged often enough to keep the PPP interface up.

relax-jate

Relaxes JATE ISDN restriction.

rip-static-suppress new value

When set to a non-zero value, static routes will not be advertised by RIP over a given interface unless the IP config> enable send static command

is given for the interface. This changes the semantics of the enable send static command. When rip-static-suppress is equal to 0 (the default), the list of the routes advertised via RIP is the union of those speci®ed by the interface's RIP ¯ags.

Note: You must specify the complete name of the patch variable that you want to change. You cannot use an abbreviated syntax for the patch name.

Performance

Use the performance command at the GWCON> prompt (+) to enter the con®guration environment for performance. See ªChapter 14. Con®guring and Monitoring Performanceº on page 215 for more information.

Protocol

Use the protocol command at the Config> prompt to enter the con®guration environment for the protocol software installed in the router.

Syntax:
protocol	[prot# or prot_name]
The protocol command followed by the desired protocol number or short name lets
you enter a protocol's command environment. After you enter this command, the
prompt of the speci®ed protocol appears. From the prompt, you can enter
commands speci®c to that protocol. To return toConfig>, enter the exit command.
Notes:
1. To see the names and numbers of the protocols in your software load, at the
Config> prompt, enter list con®guration.
2. When you change a user-con®gurable parameter, you must restart the router for
the change to take effect. To do so, enter the restart command at the OPCON
prompt (*).
