 GigE Port Flow Control – When the GigE Link Rate is set to something
other than auto, use this drop-down box to enable or disable GigE port flow
control. The default is enabled.
 VLAN Enabled – Provides a drop-down box you can use to enable or
disable VLAN support. The default is disabled.
 VLAN ID – When VLAN is enabled, use this field to define the VLAN ID. The
VLAN ID must be the same on both routers participating in the FCIP route
(local and remote routers must be using same VLAN ID) and the Ethernet
switches.
 VLAN Priority – When VLAN is enabled, use this drop-down box to set the
VLAN priority to one of eight options: 0 through 7.
 Error Detect Timeout – Provides a drop-down box you can use to set the
error detect timeout value by selecting one of five options: 1 to 5 seconds.
The default is one second.
 Resource Allocate Timeout – Provides a drop-down box you can use to
set the resource allocate timeout value to one of five options: 1 to 5 seconds.
The default is one second.
 FCIP Timestamp – Provides a drop-down box you can use to enable or
disable FCIP timestamps. The default is enabled.
 FCIP SW Compression – Provides a drop-down box you can use to enable
or disable FCIP compression. The default is disabled.
 Bandwidth (Mbit/sec) – Use this field to define the maximum bandwidth (in
megabits per second) the GigE port will use during transmits. The range of
values supported is 1 to 1000 megabits per second. Use this setting to limit
the bandwidth used by the FCIP route so it doesn't consume all the available
link bandwidth. For example, if the slowest link in the WAN being used is a
DS-3 link, then the maximum available bandwidth is 45 megabits per
second. To limit the FCIP route to 33% of the overall link bandwidth, set the
bandwidth to 15 megabits per second.
