1.3.6 PACKET-SIZE
Changes the packet size of all Token Ring networks. Changing the
packet-size
value can greatly increase buffer
memory requirements.
The following table shows valid packet sizes for 4 Mbps and 16 Mbps networks.

1.3.7 RIF-TIMER
Configures the
Routing Information Field
(RIF) timer, which measures (in seconds) the amount of time the router
keeps RIF information before it is refreshed. Default is 120 seconds.

1.3.8 SOURCE-ROUTING
Enables or disables end station
source routing
. Through this process, end stations can determine the route to other
network devices over bridges implementing source routing. This allows the IP protocol to reach nodes located on the
other side of the bridge in source routing mode. This option does not depend on whether the interface supports
source routing in packet transmission and reception for this type or not. Default is enabled.
