BSR 2000 Command Reference Guide Release 1.0

cable upstream force-frag

The cable upstream force-fragcommand is used as a traffic shaping tool that forces the CM to fragment large upstream packets. When a CM sends a request to the CMTS for a large data grant that exceeds the configured minislot threshold, the CMTS grants the CM the configured minislot threshold, which forces the CM to make another data grant request for the remaining data, thereby causing data packets in the original grant to be fragmented by the CM.
