    set  [node node-id] mop circuit circuit-name ...

    Modifies the attributes for a mop circuit entity, which is
    a data link circuit on which MOP services are available.  The
    modifiable attributes and their data types [in brackets] are:

    known clients only [boolean]
    link name [data-link-entity-name]
    retransmit timer [seconds]

    Refer to attributes for specific command examples.

1  –  known_clients_only

    Default: False         Value: True or false

    Specifies whether MOP attempts to service load requests from
    remote systems which do not have a corresponding client entity.
    Some network servers are designed to request specific software
    by name, and in such a case there is no need for a client entity
    to exist. By default, MOP tries to process requests for named
    software from unknown clients. Set this attribute to true if you
    wish MOP to ignore such requests.

    set [node node-id] mop circuit circuit-name -
        known clients only boolean

    Example:

    set mop circuit fddi-1 known clients only true

2  –  link_name

    Default: No name       Value: Data link entity name

    Name of a station entity in the Data Link layer module indicated
    by the type characteristic. This name is passed to the Data Link
    layer module when MOP opens a portal for the circuit.

    set [node node-id] mop circuit circuit-name -
        link name data-link-entity-name

3  –  retransmit_timer

    Default: 4             Value: 1-30

    Time, in seconds, to wait for a response before retransmitting a
    MOP protocol message.

    set [node node-id] mop circuit circuit-name -
        retransmit timer integer

    Example:

    set mop circuit fddi-1 retransmit timer 4
