config sim

Purpose Used to configure role parameters for the SIM protocol on the

switch.

Syntax

config sim [{[ commander {group_name <groupname 64> |

candidate] | dp_interval <30-90> | hold_time <sec 100-255>}]

Description This command is used to configure parameters of switches of the

SIM.

Parameters commander – Use this parameter to configure the commander

switch for the following parameters:

 group_name <groupname 64> - Used to update the name

of the group. Enter an alphanumeric string of up to 64

characters to rename the SIM group.

 dp_interval <30-90> – The user may set the discovery

protocol interval, in seconds that the switch will send out

discovery packets. Returning information to the commander

switch will include information about other switches

connected to it. (Ex. MS, CaS). The user may set the

discovery protocol interval from 30 to 90 seconds.

 hold time <sec 100-255> – Using this parameter, the user

may set the time, in seconds, the switch will hold

information sent to it from other switches, utilizing the

discovery interval protocol. The user may set the hold time

from 100 to 300 seconds.

candidate – Used to change the role of a commander switch to a

candidate switch.

 dp_interval <30-90>– The user may set the discovery

protocol interval, in seconds that the switch will send out

discovery packets. Returning information to the commander

switch will include information about other switches

connected to it. (Ex. MS, CaS). The user may set the dp

interval from 30 to 90 seconds.

 hold time <sec 100-255>– Using this parameter, the user

may set the time, in seconds, the switch will hold

information sent to it from other switches, utilizing the

discovery interval protocol. The user may set the hold time

from 100 to 300 seconds.

Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.

To change the time interval of the discovery protocol:

DGS-3312SR:4#config sim commander dp_interval 30

Command:config sim commander dp_interval 30

Success.
