Open/Opened BB_credit

Pressing <Enter>, while

Open/Opened BB_credit

is selected, displays:

Open/Opened BB_credit

4

The number is used to specifies the maximum number of R_RDY's an FL_Port
can issue (provided buffers are available) at the beginning of each loop
tenancy. Configuring a higher value allows NL_Ports to send out more frames
to the Fabric in a loop, and can increase performance especially in bigger
loops.

Frame Collection

Pressing <Enter>, while

Frame Collection

is selected, displays:

Frame Collection

Method? Bundle/Piling

This command specifies two frame collection methods, bundle and piling.
Using bundling, frames are separated in different queues based on
source/destination pairs. Piling accumulates frame based on destination
AL_PA. Piling can minimize loop traffic by reducing overhead and increases
the loop efficiency.

To set, press <Tab/Esc> for Bundle or <Enter> for Piling.

Reset to Default

Pressing <Enter>, while

Reset to Default

is selected, displays:

Reset to Default

Accept? Yes No

Selecting the Yes option then pressing <Enter> causes all values in the
Configuration Menu to reset to default conditions. Once the Ethernet IP
address and the switchname are changed, they are not reset to default values.

NOTE: Resetting the Switch to default causes all configuration settings, names, and
passwords entered to be reset to default settings, except the IP address and switchname.
