NoReset
The StayAliveAction parameter enables the Ethernet driver to reset the Ethernet controller chip for the specified path if no data is received during the interval determined by the StayAliveTimer parameter. If the default value of NoReset is used, the driver does not reset the chip.
The default value of NoReset is normally satisfactory unless you suspect a path has stopped receiving data. You can examine path statistics by entering:
FLush
SHow -SYS STATistics -PAth
The StayAliveAction parameter can be set only on NETBuilder II bridge/router single-port and dual-port Ethernet modules. If you attempt to set this parameter on other types of NETBuilder II bridge/router ports, or on SuperStack II NETBuilder bridge/router ports, you will receive error messages.
