Dead Count
The
number of polling packets that are missed before LAN Monitor sends
a nettl log message to the user that indicates
the link might have problems and the network must be checked. The
default is 3.
Polling Interval
The number of microseconds between polling messages. Polling messages
are sent between links in the specified interval for monitoring the
health of all the links in the link aggregate. Default is 10,000,000
(10 seconds).
Rapid ARP
Enables
(on) or disables (off) the ability to transmit gratuitous ARP messages
at intervals shorter than 5 seconds. By default, this parameter is
on.
By default, when the MAC
address of a failover group changes, LAN Monitor transmits one gratuitous
ARP packet. Then, it transmits gratuitous ARP packets at a set interval
(LM_RAPID_ARP_INTERVAL) for a set number of times
(LM_RAPID_ARP_COUNT) to ensure that other clients
and servers receive the new IP-MAC address mapping. LAN Monitor then
transmits gratuitous ARP packets every 5 seconds until 1 minute has
elapsed from the first gratuitous ARP packet.
If you disable this parameter, immediately after
the MAC address changes LAN Monitor transmits gratuitous ARP packets
every 5 seconds for 1 minute.
Rapid ARP Interval
The number of microseconds between rapid gratuitous ARP messages.
The range of valid values is 1000000–4000000, inclusive (1 second
to 4 seconds). The default value is 1000000 (1 second). Specify a
whole number of seconds because the value you specify is rounded up
to the next whole number of seconds. The value must be a valid integer.
The rapid ARP interval multiplied by the rapid ARP count must be less
than or equal to 60 seconds.
Rapid ARP Count
The number of gratuitous ARP packets sent rapidly. The valid range
is 5–60, inclusive. The default value is 10. The value must
be a valid integer. The rapid ARP interval multiplied by the rapid
ARP count must be less than or equal to 60 seconds.
