Configuring the Internal McDATA Fibre Channel Switch Interface

None - Select this option to disable batching.

Frame Batching - Frame batching increases throughput by grouping
data frames for transmission.

The Frame Batching option is not selectable for the FCCNT Fibre
Channel interfaces or the FC/SCSI Tape Pipelining function, and is
disabled.

MTU Batching - This option is the default for E_port and F_port
configurations. Select this option to enable frame batching based on
an MTU value. The MTU batching size defines the MTU for the batch
of backbone frames that are collected and transmitted as one packet
across the network.

If this option is selected, the batching size is set to 16000.

The MTU Batching option is not available for the FC/SCSI Tape
Pipelining function.
