1842.0. "900MX token rotation value" by CSC32::ROMANO () Wed Jan 04 1995 19:55

synopsis:  
    	does anyone have information on how to change the
    token rotation value on the DECbridge 900MX?
                                 

description:

    Site (a bank) has all FDDI user systems on NI cards. 
    They replaced a 620 with the 900MX, and it appears their
    response was better with the 620 at 12ms than the 900MX
    at its default 8ms.

    The ring performed better with the 620 at 12ms than when
    the 620 was running at 8ms (they manipulated the token
    rotation value with MCC).  They'd like to try the 12ms
    value on the 900MX.

    HUBWATCH is not available at the site.
                                                          
Thank you,
    V. Romano

    That object is defined in rfc1512.mib, FDDI-SMT73-MIB - the FDDI MIB.
    
    Note that this will change the value _bid_ by the switch - the value
    used by the ring will be the lowest bid by any station.
