Hi Manny,
If I read the question right, R2 is to handle at least 100 frames and
anything after that is eligible to be dropped. So, the router needs to
handle 100 frame at the mininum. The 101st frame can be dropped. I'm
thinking the question is looking for 'explorerq-depth':
source-bridge explorerQ-depth 100
You're right, the wording of the question is a little confusing because the
question makes it sound like it wants to keep accepting packets after the
100 - which the above statement would deny.
HTH,
Sean

I am doing a lab a friend got from a class he attended in NY. There is a
question in the DLSw section that has puzzled the heck out of me and I
simply can not make sense of it. Perhaps someone here can help:
"7.3 Assuming Ring 2 is sending a lot of explorer frames, which causes
R2 token ring to drop frames, configure R2 so that the token ring will
accept at least 100 frames."
Now, I know I can stop the explorers by populating the reachability
tables with ICANREACH, but, what the heck is this "accept at least 100
frames" stuff?
TIA
Manny
