Time value +1-65535 corresponds to a real time period and is expressed in units equivalent +to 64 ticks of the TSEC clock. Count 1-255 represents the number of frames +(note that value of 1 is equivalent to IC disabled). User provided values +larger than supported will be trimmed to the maximum supported.
