ALTER SAC Command

If your token-ring LAN is using 3616 Token Ring adapters, check the ring speed
before inserting TRSAs into your LAN. The TRSAs have a default ring speed of
16Mbps which could cause a conflict at ring-insertion time if there is a 3616 Token
Ring adapter using a ring speed of 4Mbps.

If PIF C is configured in AUTODETECT mode and both the copper and fiber C
ports are connected to the network, the adapter code activates the fiber port and
associate it with PIF C. Likewise for PIF D: if PIF D is configured in AUTODETECT
mode and both the copper and fiber D ports are connected to the network, the
adapter code activates the fiber port and associate it with PIF D.
Examples
The following example uses the ALTER command to turn on active monitoring and to
set the ring speed to 4.
ALTER PIF $ZZLAN.T0253.0.A , ACTIVEMONITOR ON, RINGSPEED 4
The following example uses the ALTER command to select the fiber ports on a G4SA
adapter type.
ALTER PIF $ZZLAN.G11123.0.C, INTERFACE FIBER
