IP Fragmentation (Toggle)
This field enables or disables IP Fragmentation. The default setting for this field is
ENABLED. If the module will be bridged to an FDDI ring within the chassis, IP
Fragmentation should be enabled. If IP Fragmentation is disabled, all FDDI
frames that exceed the maximum Ethernet frame size will be discarded. For
details on enabling or disabling IP Fragmentation, see “Enabling/Disabling IP
Fragmentation” on page 27.
Module Date (Modifiable)
This field contains a value that the module recognizes as the current date. To enter
a new date, highlight the field and enter the date in MM/DD/YYYY format. The
month and day portion of the date must include two digits. Therefore, enter a
leading zero for months January through September, and for dates less than 10.
For example, for June 4, 1999, enter 06/04/1999 (slashes are optional). If slashes
are not entered to separate the month, day, and year values, the first eight digits
entered in this field represent an entry (i.e., 06041999).
Module Time (Modifiable)
This field contains a value that the module recognizes as the current time. To enter
a new time, highlight the field and enter the time in HH:MM:SS format. Notice
that there is no AM/PM indicator. Enter time based upon a 24 hour clock. For 4:07
p.m., enter 16:07:00 (colons are optional). If colons are not entered to separate the
hours, minutes, and seconds values, the first six digits entered in this field
represent an entry (i.e., 160700). For 6:12 a.m., enter 6:12:00 or 06120.
