2.14.6. TYPE GLOBIF - Changing the Idle Bit Pattern and Interface-Specific Parameters Previous topic Parent topic Child topic Next topic

The setting for the physical Ethernet interface may be different for individual HG 3500s.
The Ethernet interface setting must be identical for both connected interface partners (HG 3500 or LAN switches, routers).
IMPORTANT:
The setting of a fixed interface partner leads to problems with the "Autonegotiate" setting of the other partner. Incorrect settings cannot normally be detected by the system and therefore go unreported. If one device is operating in full duplex and the other in half duplex mode, this is not immediately noticeable. Where there is a high payload, the device set to half duplex will report a higher number of late collisions and the packet delay will increase sharply. If the LAN port connected to the HG 3500 does not support autonegotiation or if it does not work reliably, fixed values must be set for the HG 3500’s Ethernet inter­faces.
The QoS-relevant parameters are set identically for all HG 3500 modules together with SL100/200 via the AMO SIPCO.
In the example, the Ethernet interface is set to 10 Mbps half duplex and the idle bit pattern is set to 213.
