Sun Microsystems 805-1797-10 manual Defining the Number of Back-to-Back Packets to Transmit

Defining the Number of Back-to-Back Packets to Transmit

The pace_size parameter (see Table C–6) defines the maximum number of back-to-back packets you can transmit at one time. If the value is zero, there is no limit to the number of back-to-back packets that can be transmitted.

TABLE C–6Back-to-back Packet Transmission Capability

Parameter	Values	Description
pace_size	1 to 255	=	Number of back-to-back packets transmitted at one time
	0	=	No limit to the number of back-to-back packets that can
		be	transmitted (default)

Reporting Transceiver Capabilities

Table C–7 describes the read-only transceiver capabilities. These parameters define the capabilities of the hardware. The internal transceiver can support all of these capabilities.

TABLE C–7Read-Only Transceiver Capabilities

Parameter	ValuesDescription
autoneg_cap	Local transceiver capability of the hardware
	0
	= Not capable of auto-negotiation
	1
	= Auto negotiation capable
100fdx_cap	Local transceiver capability of the hardware; initialized at startup = Not
	0
	100Mbit/sec full-duplex capable
	1
	= 100Mbit/sec full-duplex capable
100hdx_cap	Local transceiver capability of the hardware; initialized at startup
	0
	= Not 100Mbit/sec half-duplex capable
	1
	= 100Mbit/sec half-duplex capable
