prConPortIFM

Module: A3COM0420-SWITCH-EXTENSIONS

OID (symbolic): A3COM0420-SWITCH-EXTENSIONS::prConPortIFM

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.43.10.34.2.1.1.13

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object controls Intelligent Flow Management for the port,

which specifies what action the port takes whenever it is unable

to receive a packet because its buffers are full. When set to

off(2), the packet is dropped immediately. If it is set to any

of the values maxJams6(3) to maxJams13(10), a jam signal is

transmitted to the segment attached to the port to force a

collision so that the originator will stop and retransmit the

frame. This will be repeated a maximum of 6 to 13 times

depending on the setting. If the port is then still unable to

receive the packet it is dropped. Intelligent Flow Management

should be disabled on ports which are connected to ree Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol,

defined by IEEE Std. 802.1w.

What is prConPortIFM?

This OID manages Intelligent Flow Management, controlling how a port handles packets when its buffers are full. When set to off(2), packets are dropped; other values enable jam signals to force senders to retransmit. Engineers configure this to balance network congestion handling, for example using maxJams8(5) to allow several retry attempts before dropping.
