Reflective Memory: Port Configuration

Procedure

  1. Retry Count Indicates the number of times communications will be attempted before the device is considered to be down.
  2. A $DEVICE_DOWN alarm is generated.  Once a device is down, periodic attempts are made to resume communications.
    Note: Device up/down is determined by the ability to read and write to the reflective memory card only.  Down or defective nodes on the fiber network used by the reflective memory card will impact the ability for the card to receive updates, but will not affect the ability to read and write to the card.
