The PROPAGATION_DELAY parameter specifies the time it takes for
a signal to travel the length of the link, in microseconds, for this
link station. The value is encoded as a 1-byte floating-point number,
represented by the following formula:
0.1 mmm * 2 eeeeewhere the bit representation of the byte is eeeeemmm.
Valid values are:
- LAN
- Less than 480 microseconds delay.
- MAXIMUM
- Maximum propagation delay.
- MINIMUM
- No propagation delay.
- PKT_SWITCHED_NET
- Between 49 512 and 245 760 microseconds delay.
- SATELLITE
- Longer than 245 760 microseconds delay.
- TELEPHONE
- Between 480 and 49 512 microseconds delay.
This parameter is optional.
