Hi Florian,

Yes, you can set the link tolerance on each link that is established,
but that link will be established with the default tolerance that is
hard-coded.

Once the link is up, you can change the tolerance.

Bill wanted to have the link initially come up with a link tolerance
that is different from the hard-coded one.

For example, the default hard-coded value is 1500 ms.  Let us say you
want ALL your links to come up with 3000 ms instead, then you would have
to either change the hard-coded value and recompile, or issue
tipc-config (tipcConfig in VxWorks) on each link as it comes up.

Are you sure?
tipc-config has
  -lt    =<linkname>|<pattern>/<value>       Set link tolerance

and at least the 1.7.x linux tipc version appears to support
TIPC_CMD_SET_LINK_TOL (which is sent by tipc-config).

If it does not work -- is there a particular problem that prevents this
from being implemented easily?
