Configuring Line Services
3-8
Parameter: BOFL Enable
Default: Enable
Options: Enable
| Disable
Function: When set to Enable, the router sends Breath of Life polling messages
from this system to all systems on the local network. These messages
signify that the Ethernet line is up and functioning normally.
Instructions: Set to Enable or Disable, depending on whether you want this system to
broadcast Breath of Life messages over this line. We recommend that you
enable BOFL.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.4.1.1.7
Parameter: BOFL Timeout
Default: 5 seconds
Range: 1 to 60 seconds
Function: Specifies the time between transmissions of Breath of Life messages from
this Ethernet interface. Timeout will occur if five periods elapse without a
successful BOFL message transmission. When timeout occurs, the router
disables and re-enables the Ethernet interface. For example, if you set this
parameter to 5 seconds, the interface must successfully transmit a BOFL
message within 25 seconds. Timeout occurs in 25 seconds.
This parameter is valid only if you set BOFL Enable to Enable.
Instructions: Accept the default BOFL timeout of 5 seconds, or specify a new value up
to 60 seconds.
