Specify Shortcut NSAP Addresses

You can define a name-to-NSAP address mapping. This name can
then be used in place of typing the long set of num bers associated with
an NSAP address.
In global configuration mode, d efine a name-to-NSAP addre ss map-
ping:
clns host

name nsap

The assigned NSAP name is displayed, where applicable, in show and
debug EXEC commands. However, some effects and requirements
are associated with using names to represent NETs and NSAP ad
dresses.
The clns host global configuration command is generated after all
other CLNS commands when the configuration file is parsed. As a re-
sult, you cannot edit the nonvolatile random access memory
(NVRAM) version of the configuration to specifically change the ad-
dress defined in the original clns host command. You must spe-
cifically change any commands that refer to the original address. This
affects all commands that accept names.
The commands that are affected by these requirements include:
znet (router configuration command
zclns is-neighbor (interface configuration command)
zclns es-neighbor (interface configuration command)
zclns route (global configuration command)
