Notes:
  1. NEGLIGIB is the default if the TRLE operand is coded.

Specifies the maximum propagation delay of the link for the transmission group. Propagation delay represents the time needed for a signal to travel from one end of the link to the other.

See TRLE for more information about coding PDELAY for XCF connectivity.
PDELAY=NEGLIGIB
Indicates a local area network delay (less than .48 milliseconds).
PDELAY=TERRESTR
Indicates telephone network delay (between .48 and 49.152 milliseconds).
PDELAY=PACKET
Indicates a packet-switched network delay (between 49.152 and 245.76 milliseconds).
PDELAY=LONG
Indicates a satellite delay (greater than 245.76 milliseconds).

TG characteristics are not valid with DYNTYPE=VN because DYNTYPE=VN defines the dynamic PU used for a VN connection, not the virtual routing node (VRN) and its associated TGs. The TG created with the dynamic PU is not reported to Topology and Routing Services and is not involved in route calculation. To determine the weight of the TGs associated with the VRN, specify the TG characteristics in the XCA major node or the NCP major node.
