4. Configuration Options

Configuring Service Level Verification Options

SLV options are selected from the System menu (see Table 4-4, Service Level

Verification Options).

Main Menu → Configuration → System→ Service Level Verification

Table 4-4. Service Level Verification Options (1 of 3)

SLV Sample Interval (secs)

Possible Settings: 10 – 3600

Default Setting: 60

Sets the inband communications interval between FrameSaver SLV devices. Inband communications are used to pass frames that calculate latency, as well as transmission success and other SLV information.

10 – 3600 – Sets the SLV Sample Interval (secs) in seconds.

SLV Synchronization Role

Available Settings: Tributary, Controller, None

Default Setting: Tributary

Determines the role the unit plays in maintaining synchronization of user history data collection and storage between FrameSaver SLV and/or FLEX devices.

ributary – Uses network timing received from incoming SLV communications and provides network-based synchronization information to other devices in the network.

Controller – Uses its own internal time-of-day clock and provides synchronization information to other devices in the network based upon its own clock.

NOTE: Only one device in the network should be configured as the SLV synchronization controller.

None – Incoming timing information is ignored and no timing information is sent out. This setting should only be used when network synchronization is not desirable, or when a single unit connects multiple networks or network segments.

SLV Type

Available Settings: Standard, COS 1–COS 7

Default Setting:

If SLV Feature is enabled: Standard

If SLV Feature is disabled: COS 1

Determines the type of SLV measurements to which these other SLV options apply:

SLV Timeout Error Event Threshold

SLV Timeout Clearing Event Threshold

SLV Round Trip Latency Error Threshold

TSLV Latency Clearing Event Threshold

SLV Packet Size

Standard – The options selected apply to standard FrameSaver SLV measurements, utlizing an EDLCI for FrameSaver-to-FrameSaver communication. This option is not available if the SLV Feature is disabed.

COS 1–COS 7 – The options selected apply to this Class of Service. Different settings may be saved for each Class of Service.
