Overview

 

 

Introduction

This manual describes the PAD and ATPAD port configurations used on PathBuilder

 

S200 series switches. It includes explanations of both PAD port types, commands

 

that can be used, and how to configure a node for either PAD or ATPAD operation.

Before You Begin

Before you can configure parameters, you must log on to the local node’s control

 

terminal port. Refer to the Configuration Basics Guide for CTP procedures.
