config sim
Purpose Used to configure role parameters for the SIM protocol on the
Switch.
Syntax
config sim [{[commander {group_name <groupname 64> |
candidate] | dp_interval <30-90> | hold_time <sec 100-300>}]
Description This command is used to configure parameters of switches of the
SIM.
Parameters commander – Use this parameter to configure the commander
switch(CS) for the following parameters:
candidate – Used to change the role of a CS (commander) to a
CaS (candidate).
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
DES-3550 Layer 2 Fast Ethernet Switch
group_name <groupname 64> - Used to update the name
of the group. Enter an alphanumeric string of up to 64
characters to rename the SIM group.
dp_interval <30-90> – The user may set the discovery
protocol interval, in seconds that the Switch will send out
discovery packets. Returning information to the CS will
include information about other switches connected to it.
(Ex. MS, CaS). The user may set the dp_interval from 30 to
90 seconds.
hold time <sec 100-300> – Using this parameter, the user
may set the time, in seconds, the CS will hold information
sent to it from other switches, utilizing the discovery interval
protocol. The user may set the hold time from 100 to 300
seconds.
dp_interval <30-90> – The user may set the discovery
protocol interval, in seconds that the Switch will send out
discovery packets. Returning information to the CS will
include information about other switches connected to it.
(Ex. MS, CaS). The user may set the dp_interval from 30 to
90 seconds.
hold time <100-300> – Using this parameter, the user may
set the time, in seconds, the Switch will hold information
sent to it from other switches, utilizing the discovery interval
protocol. The user may set the hold time from 100 to 300
seconds.
