The Update Link Configuration command is similar to the SC command except that it allows the user to modify various LANIC card configuration parameters interactively through a single command.
Caution Users should consult with a System or Network Manager prior to modifying local or remote node configuration parameters.
Note
During an interactive UC command session, an entry that exceeds 128 charac" ters will abort the Node Manager software interface program. Subsequently, it must be rerun.
The syntax of this command is:
UC[,[ADR][,[option][,LU#]]]
where: |
|
ADR | This is the •target" Station Address, that is, the node whose configuration |
| parameters are to be set. It is entered as 6 pairs of hexadecimal digits |
| separated by hyphens. See Table 5"1 for default addresses. |
option | •P" or •T" may be entered for NOVRAM"stored parameters. |
| If P is entered, parameters corresponding to PAR# values 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 9 |
| in Table 5"6 are modified in both RAM and NOVRAM with the |
| |
| values are modified, the change is •permanent". |
| If T is entered, the applicable parameters are modified in RAM only. This |
| change is •temporary" because NOVRAM contents are not modified. T is |
| the default entry if option is not specified. |
| Note that parameters never stored in NOVRAM (for example, File Server |
| Station Address, PAR# = 10) are not permanent regardless of the option |
| specified and will be lost if the Node Manager software is terminated. |
LU# | This is the Logical Unit number that identifies the LANIC card through |
| which a command is transmitted and from which a response is received. |
| LU# is a number in the range 2 to 255 (decimal) established during system |
| generation; hence, it always applies to a local LANIC card. See Table 5"1 |
| for default values. |
