Define SNA SDLC Port

The following are CLI commands for managing an SDLC port.

CLI> define sna sdlc port connTimer

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<ConnTimer>

Integer (0..65535)

Enter how long in milliseconds the data link layer will wait before failing to activate a port. The default value is 10000.


CLI> define sna sdlc port connTimerRetry

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<ConnTimerRetry>

Integer (0..65535)

Enter the number of times the data link layer will attempt to retry activating a port. 65535 means to retry indefinitely. The default is 65535.


CLI> define sna sdlc port maxRcvWindow

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<MaxRcvWindow>

Integer (0..127)

Enter the maximum number of unacknowledged frames that can be received. 0 means the value passed on an XID exchange will be used. The default is 7.


CLI> define sna sdlc port name

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<Name>

"String" (1..8)

Enter a quoted string that identifies the physical port to which this interface is assigned. The name must contain only ASCII printable characters.


CLI> define sna sdlc port primaryDuplex

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<PrimaryDuplex>

full-duplex | half-duplex

Specify whether the primary station on this link is full-duplex or half-duplex. The default is full-duplex.


CLI> define sna sdlc port role

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<Role>

primary | secondary

Specify whether the linkstation should assume primary or secondary the next time a connection is established. The default is primary.


CLI> define sna sdlc port secondaryDuplex

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<SecondaryDuplex>

full-duplex | half-duplex

Specify whether the secondary station on this link supports full or half duplex. The default is full-duplex.


CLI> define sna sdlc port slowPollTimer

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<SlowPollTimer>

Integer (100..6000)

Enter the elapsed time, in hundredths of a second, between polls for a failed link station address. This parameter is used only for SDLC ports where the Role is set to primary and Topology is set to multipoint. The default value is 2000.


CLI> define sna sdlc port topology

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<Topology>

pointToPoint | multipoint

Specify whether this port is capable of operating in a point-to-point or a multipoint topology. Multipoint implies that the port can also operate in a point-to-point topology. A pointToPoint port cannot operate in a multipoint topology. The default value is pointToPoint.


CLI> define sna sdlc port useReject

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<UseReject>

yes | no

Specify whether the link can send a reject whenever an I-frame is received with an invalid sequence number. The default value is no.


CLI> define sna sdlc port writeTimer

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<WriteTimer>

Integer (0..65535)

Enter the maximum time in milliseconds that the data link layer allows for frames to be truncated. The default value is 1000.


CLI> define sna sdlc port writeTimerRetry

Parameter

Range of Values

Required Action

<IfIndex>

Integer (1..255)

Enter the IfIndex of the port.

<WriteTimerRetry>

Integer (0..65535)

Enter the maximum number of retries attempted to transmit a frame. 65535 means to retry indefinitely. The default value is 65535.
