The maximum for an RS-232 interface on an N7400 or 7500 is 19.2K.
The maximum for an RS-232 interface on an FRX8000 is 64K if the
port is directly connected to the user device via the 5-foot Cabletron
RS-232 cable. If modems or longer cabling are used, the recom-
mended maximum speed is 19.2K. (The EIA RS-232 standard applies
to line speeds of 19.2K and lower.)
Modulus
is a number for values used in X.25 level-2 sequenced packets. The actual frame num-
bering is 0–7 for modulus 8 and 0–127 for modulus 128.
Outstanding Frames
is X.25 value K, the maximum number of sequentially numbered I-frames that can be
waiting for acknowledgment. If this number is exceeded, no more frames will be
transmitted until an acknowledgment is received.
N2 Maximum Retransmissions
is X.25 value N2, the maximum number of times the node will attempt to send an I-
frame after a Retransmission Period expiration. A larger value for this parameter
increases the probability of an eventual correct transfer between DTE and DCE, but a
smaller value permits faster detection of a permanent error condition.
T1 Retransmission Period
is X.25 timer T1, the length of time before the node will transmit an I-frame if the pre-
vious transmission is not acknowledged. If the period expires, the timer will be reset
and a supervisory frame will be transmitted demanding immediate acknowledgment.
The N2 counter will also be incremented (see the N2 entry on page 7-7).
The default value of 2000 ms allows avoidance of unnecessary retransmission of
frames that have merely been delayed.
T2 Acknowledgment Delay
is X.25 timer T2, the length of time the node will delay acknowledgment of a received
I-frame if there is no outgoing I-frame to be sent. If during this period the node
