Setting timeout > 0 when sending indicates that a MAD should be received with
the response bit set that is in reply to the request. If timeout = 0 but RMPP
is marked active, the MAD will still invoke RMPP and not complete until all
segments have been ACKed. (I.e. the completion of an RMPP send indicates that
the MAD was received.)
If timeout = 0, does RMPP still indicate a timeout if an ACK is lost and
the other end does not reACK ?
It should, yes. The send will complete with a timeout error.
Retries is a little more complex. It indicates the number of times to send a
request in hopes of receiving a response (if one is expected) or an ACK (if
using RMPP).
Any effect on ABORT and/or STOP ?
I wouldn't think so, receiving an ABORT or STOP should fail the send
immediately.
I will try that. Using retry and timeout on the SA side is definitely
problematic. Right now it is set to no retries and no timeout on the SA
side. I will change and retest.
This should work, but will not be able to recover from a lost or delayed MAD.
