DELAY n

Default: 10 (0.10 second)

Units: Milliseconds

Range: 0 through 511 (0 to 5.11 seconds)

This Layer 2 modifier is applicable to direct-connect Expand line-handler processes

only. This modifier sets the amount of time, in one-hundredth of a second increments,

that a data bit spends on the line during message transmission. The Expand line-

handler process uses the transmission size, the amount of delay before the message

can be dispatched, and the DELAY modifier value to select the most efficient line for

data transmission within a path that consists of multiple lines.

Transmission delay is usually minimal on a terrestrial link. Transmission delay on a

satellite link is greater than on a terrestrial link.

DESTATMADDR n

Default: (ISONSAP:%H0000000000000000000000000000000000000000)

Units: Not applicable

Range: Any valid ISO NSAP ATM address

This modifier is applicable to Expand-over-ATM line-handler processes that use

switched virtual circuits (SVCs). This modifier specifies the Asynchronous Transfer

Mode (ATM) address configured for the ATM line used by the Expand-over-ATM line-

handler process at the destination system.

The address must be specified by number in the form (ISONSAP:%Hatm-address)

where atm-address is the 20-byte ATM address.

DESTIPADDR n

Default: 0.0.0.1

Units: Not applicable

Range: Any 36-character string

This modifier is applicable to Expand-over-IP line-handler processes only. This modifier

specifies the Internet Protocol (IP) address used by the remote (destination) Expand-

over-IP line-handler process. It is the IP address specified in the remote line-handler

process’ SRCIPADDR modifier.

The address must be specified by number (for example, 130.252.12.3). It is not

validated and need not be accessible. Configuring IP addresses is explained in the

TCP/IP Configuration and Management Manual.
