SLOTTIME

Command

SLOTTIME -- Display / Set the slottime parameter for a port.

Synopsis

SLOTTIME <port> [millisecs]

Availability

Sysop-only.

Description

The SLOTTIME command allows the value of the CSMA interval timer for a port to be displayed or altered. The usual setting is 100 milliseconds.

Options

If a single numeric argument is supplied, the slottime value for that port number is displayed.

If two numeric arguments are supplied, the first specifies the port number, and the second specifies the new value for the parameter. The new setting remains in force until changed, or until the router is restarted, in which case the value specified in the CFG file is reapplied.

Examples

SLOTTIME 3 - Display current setting for port 3 SLOTTIME 3 150 - Set port 3 slottime to 150
