Chapter 3: EIU datafill 69

Datafill sequence and implications

The following tables must be datafilled before table LIUINV:

PMLOADS

LIMINV

CARRMTC

SUSHELF

LIMPTINV (LIM-based LIU)

MSCDINV (MS-based LIU)

You must datafill the EIU in table LIUINV before datafilling it in table

IPHOST.

Table LIUINV datafill

Table 11 lists the fields and value ranges used to datafill an EIU in table

LIUINV.

CAUTION

Possible loss of service

Table LIUINV requires that you datafill a unique media access control (MAC) address for each EIU. Obtain these MAC addresses from Nortel. Using an arbitrary address for an EIU may result in loss of connectivity with the Ethernet network.

While table 11 provides all the information you need to datafill for EIUs, complete information on table LIUINV is in DMS-100 Translations Guide, 297-xxxx-350.
