Configuring The Maximum Number Of Ipv6 Icmp Error Packets Sent Within A Specified Time; Configuring The Hop Limit Of Icmpv6 Reply Packets - 3Com 4210 9-Port Configuration Manual

finwait timer: When the IPv6 TCP connection status is FIN_WAIT_2, the finwait timer is triggered. If
no packet is received before the finwait timer expires, the IPv6 TCP connection is terminated. If FIN
packets are received, the IPv6 TCP connection status becomes TIME_WAIT. If other packets are
received, the finwait timer is reset from the last packet and the connection is terminated after the
finwait timer expires.

Configuring the Maximum Number of IPv6 ICMP Error Packets Sent within a
Specified Time
If too many IPv6 ICMP error packets are sent within a short time in a network, network congestion may
occur. To avoid network congestion, you can control the maximum number of IPv6 ICMP error packets
sent within a specified time. Currently, the token bucket algorithm is adopted.
You can set the capacity of a token bucket, namely, the number of tokens in the bucket. In addition, you
can set the update period of the token bucket, namely, the interval for updating the number of tokens in
the token bucket to the configured capacity. One token allows one IPv6 ICMP error packet to be sent.
Each time an IPv6 ICMP error packet is sent, the number of tokens in a token bucket decreases by 1. If
the number of the IPv6 ICMP error packets that are continuously sent out reaches the capacity of the
token bucket, the subsequent IPv6 ICMP error packets cannot be sent out until new tokens are put into
the token bucket based on the specified update frequency.

Configuring the Hop Limit of ICMPv6 Reply Packets

When sending an ICMPv6 reply packet, the device will fill a configurable value in the Hop Limit field in
the ICMPv6 reply packet header.

By default, the capacity of a token
bucket is 10 and the update period to
100 milliseconds. That is, at most 10
IPv6 ICMP error packets can be sent
within an update period.
