(2) Configuration of communication traffic control

Configure the settings for Plan Item 2 of (1) Standard Operation Plan in Creating an operation plan.

You can control communication traffic by changing the Receive Multiplex Level.

Use HULFT Scheduler or the schedule function to schedule a job that decreases the Receive Multiplex Level during the day and increases it at night.

The following shows an example of the job (shell script).

For details on using utilities, refer to Hulenv restore commands.
