160APPENDIX C: SYNTAX CONVENTIONS

 

channel number (<connectorID>.<channelID>), for example, 3.1. When

 

 

specifying both a connector and channel number, you must separate the

 

 

two numbers with a decimal point.

 

 

If you do not specify a channel number in a command syntax that

 

 

requires a connector and channel number, the bridge/router assumes the

 

 

first channel associated with the specified connector. For example, if you

 

 

specify only connector number 3 when the command syntax requires that

 

 

you specify both a connector and channel number, the bridge/router

 

 

assumes 3.1.

 

 

If you want to specify all channels associated with a connector in a

 

 

command syntax, specify the connector number, a decimal point, then an

 

 

asterisk, for example, 3.*

 

 

A path is the physical interface that connects the bridge/router to a

 

 

physical medium such as an Ethernet bus, a token ring, or a serial line. In

 

 

an ISDN environment, a path also represents the channel over which data

 

 

is transmitted.

 

 

 

 

Getting Help

help menu, enter a question mark (?). The question mark can be used
