SC Command Examples

The following examples illustrate the use of the Set Link Configuration command.

Example 1. Setting the Trace Mode Filter Flag

NM> SC,,7<RETURN>

 

Set 802.3 Link Config of node

08-00-09-00-02-5A

Extended Trace Mode Flag

00

NM>

 

In Example 1 above, the ADR and LU# parameters are defaulted, so the target node is a local LANIC card with the lowest LU (it happens to be node 08"00"09"00"02"5A). Since PAR"value is defaulted, the trace mode is disabled. This is verified by the value returned •00".

Example 2. Setting the Retry Limit

NM>

SC,,5,15<RETURN>

 

Set

802.3 Link Config of node

08-00-09-00-02-5A

Retry Limit

15

 

NM>

Example 2 sets the Retry Limit on the node with Station Address 08"00"09"00"02"5A to •15".

Example 3. Setting the Download Server Station Address

NM> SC,,9,08-00-09-00-02-20<RETURN>

Set

802.3 Link Config of node

08-00-09-00-02-5A

Downloading Server Address

08-00-09-00-02-20

NM>

 

 

Example 3 sets the Download Server Station Address on the local node to •08"00"09"00"02"20", as verified by the return.

Example 4. Multicast Address as the Download Server Station Address

NM>

SC,,9,09-00-09-00-02-20<RETURN>

 

Set

802.3
