<h1 class="topictitle1">Remote bridges dropping frames</h1>
<div><div class="section"><p>A remote bridge discards your frame if it does not support your
frame size. Also, the network can discard your frame if it does not support
your frame size.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>If you cannot configure the bridge to support your frame size
or a larger frame size, adjust the MAXFRAME parameter to a value that is acceptable
to the bridge. The system has these MAXFRAME parameters that are shown in
order of precedence:</p>
</div>
<div class="section"> <ol><li>The source service access point (SSAP) MAXFRAME parameter
in the line description.</li>
<li>The MAXFRAME parameter in the line description (except Ethernet line descriptions).</li>
<li>The MAXFRAME parameter in the controller description.</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>The SSAP MAXFRAME parameter affects only one device. That is,
only that device will use a frame size of SSAP MAXFRAME.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>The MAXFRAME parameter that is in the line description affects
all devices that use that description.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>The MAXFRAME parameter that is in the controller description affects
all lines and devices that use that description.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>You set the precedence when specifying a MAXFRAME value. If you
define a value for the first parameter (SSAP MAXFRAME) and then the second
parameter, your system uses the value of the first parameter. To use the value
of the second parameter, you should not specify a value for the first parameter.</p>
