Additional Sysconfig Setup Considerations
Depending on the number of nest cards you have, you may need to adjust the
Polling Range, Polling Interval, and Pollto options on the Sysconfig menu:
H
Polling Range – Defines the range of nest cards that the MTU-M will poll.
Adjust the polling range to match the number of total nest cards in your
system starting with slot 2.
H
Polling Interval – Denotes the time the MTU-M waits between successive
starts of the polling cycle. If all of the nest cards can not be polled in this
amount of time they may be skipped.
H
Pollto – Denotes the maximum amount of time, in 256th seconds, that the
MTU-M will wait between the polling of each line card.
For example, if you have 51 nest cards:
1. Set your polling range from 2–51 (slot 1 is the MTU-M).
2. Set initial Pollto to 50/256th seconds (.195 seconds).
3. Set Polling Interval to10 (51 nest cards * .195 seconds = 9.945)
If you find that all of your nest cards are not being polled, you may need to
adjust these values.
