Fabric Parameters
Configure the following parameters as required by your fabric.
BB_Credit
Configure the switch to support buffer to buffer credit (BB_Credit)
from 1 through 60. This is the value used for all ports, except those
configured for extended distance buffering (10-100 km). The default
value is 16. For a description of the buffer-to-buffer credit, refer to
industry specification, Fibre Channel Physical and Signaling Interface.

R_A_TOV
Configure resource allocation time-out value (R_A_TOV) in
tenth-of-a-second increments. This variable works with the error
detect time-out value (E_D_TOV) variable to control the switch’s
behavior when an error condition occurs. Resources are allocated to a
