mismatch in speed between the Fibre Channel link and the WAN link, then time stamp errors occur in
the DMA bridge. In such a situation, you can avoid time stamp errors by increasing the buffer size.
To set the buffer size, follow these steps:

switch(config-profile)# tcp
send-buffer-size 5000

submode, follow these steps:
config-if
Peer IP address—Configures both ends of the FCIP link. Optionally, you can also use the peer TCP
port along with the IP address.
Special frames—Configures one end of the FCIP link when security gateways are present in the IP
network. Optionally, you can also use the switch WWN (sWWN) and profile ID along with the IP
address.
Purpose
Configure the advertised buffer size to 5000 KB. The valid
range is from 0 to 16384 KB.
Reverts the switch to its factory default. The default is 0 KB.
Purpose
