FeedbackIntroduction
If a switch node (IGX or BPX) is consuming a lot of real-time (80 to 90 percent), you can use the cnfrobparm command to reconfigure and recover some of this real-time.

Syntax
cnfrobparm <index> <value>
Where <index> specifies the parameter to configure and <value> specifies a new value to be entered for the parameter.
Function
This SuperUser command is used to set the timers associated with robust alarms. Robust Alarms is a protocol for node-to-NMS communications. These parameters tell the software how often to execute the robust state machine and how long to wait between messages.
Robust Communications Parameters
| No. | Parameter | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Robust State wakeup timer (sec.) | This state machine comes to life once per second (default). If this timer is increased, it operates less often and places less of a load on the node processor. | 10 sec. |
| 2 | Robust update timer (sec.) | Once a message has been sent to the NMS, another one will not be sent before this timer expires. | 10 sec. |
| 3 | Robust acknowledgment timeout (sec.) | An acknowledgment must be returned by the NMS within this time period or it is assumed the communications link is down. | 300 sec. |
| 4 | Robust acknowledgment reset timeout (sec.) | When the link has gone down and is subsequently repaired, the next message will be sent after this timeout. Provides a settling time for the link. | 60 sec. |
