28.1.9 Setting parameters

<Structure of this section>

(1) Disabling Ring Protocol function

Points to note: Specify commands to disable the Ring Protocol functionality. Note that when the Ring Protocol functionality is disabled while running, loops might occur in the network configuration. Therefore, before disabling the Ring Protocol functionality, use the shutdown command or other means to stop any interfaces running the Ring Protocol functionality.

Command examples

(config)# axrp 1

(config-axrp)# disable

Switches to the axrp configuration mode for corresponding ring ID 1. The disable command is executed to disable the Ring Protocol functionality.

Points to note: Set the flush-control frame reception hold time for transit nodes. This setting is ignored if performed for other nodes. The flush-control frame reception hold time for transit nodes (value set using the forwarding-shift-time command) must be a value greater than the sending interval for health check frames for the master node (value set by the health-check interval command). If the ring port of a transit node is changed to the forwarding status before the master node detects restoration from an incorrect setting, a loop might occur temporarily.

Command examples

(config)# axrp 1

(config-axrp)# forwarding-shift-time 100

Sets the reception hold time for flush control frames to 100 seconds.
