Table 1-7 shows the various ways you can set these parameters, and the effect
each combination has on disconnecting SVCs.
For instructions on setting these values for the inactivity parameters, see “Setting
Inactivity Values for SVCs” on page 5-22.
Note that a protocol priority filter configured with a no-reset action affects the
operation of the inactivity timer. Normally the inactivity timer resets when the
inactivity mode is set to Both or Both Directions, Either or Either Direction, or
Transmit Only or Outbound. However, if the data transmitted over an SVC
matches a protocol priority filter with a no-reset action, the inactivity timer will
not reset. Instead, the SVC may disconnect even though data is transmitting.
Managing Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Inactivity Timing
RIP is a mechanism that IP and IPX use to inform network devices of routing
topology changes. IP and IPX let you control the frequency and destination of RIP
packets. Because RIP packets can affect how the router establishes and
disconnects frame relay SVCs, the software controls how RIP interacts with the
frame relay SVC inactivity timer and the inactivity timer mode. For more
information, see Appendix B, “RIP Management for Frame Relay SVCs.”
Table 1-7. Inactivity Timer and Inactivity Timer Mode Interaction
Inactivity Timer Mode Inactivity Timers Used Disconnect SVC
Both Directions (Site Manager)
Both (BCC)
Transmit and Receive When both timers expire (no data
transmitted,
and
no data received during the
timer interval).
Either Direction (Site Manager)
Either (BCC)
Transmit and Receive When either timer expires (no data
transmitted
or
no data received during the
timer interval).
Transmit Only (Site Manager)
Outbound (BCC)
Transmit When the transmit timer expires (no data
transmitted during the timer interval).
Receive Only (Site Manager)
Inbound (BCC)
Receive When the receive timer expires (no data
received during the timer interval).
