Enabling or Disabling Synchronous Services
The router enables synchronous line services when you add the circuit. You can
disable and reenable the line without moving the cables.
Using the BCC
state
variable
For example:
sync/4/1# state enabled
sync/4/1# state disabled
Using Site Manager
See the Enable parameter on page A-55 for information.
Enabling or Disabling BofL Messages
The Breath of Life (BofL) parameter enables or disables the transmission of
proprietary BofL messages over a point-to-point connection between the local
router and a remote peer. The exchange of BofL messages provides a level of
confidence in the point-to-point connection. If you enable BofL locally, the
remote peer must also be configured to enable BofL.
Bay Networks recommends that you enable BofL for point-to-point connections
between Bay Networks peers. However, if such a connection is accomplished
through a wide area transport service such as frame relay, X.25, or SMDS, you
must disable BofL.
The router enables BofL messages by default. Disable or enable BofL messages
on the interface.
Using the BCC
bofl
variable
For example:
sync/4/1# bofl enabled
sync/4/1# bofl disabled
