|
| Network directory |
| X.25 Virtual Circuit | The network directory name must be |
| name |
| Configuration | configured for each new node. The |
|
|
|
| network directory contains |
|
|
|
| information that one node needs in |
|
|
|
| order to communicate with other |
|
|
|
| nodes. The only network directory |
|
|
|
| name supported by HP is |
|
|
|
| NSDIR.NET.SYS. |
|

|
| Network Interface |
| LAN Configuration; | The network interface (NI) name is |
| (NI) name |
| Token Ring Configuration; | used to easily identify a network |
|
|
| FDDI Configuration; | interface. The name can be up to eight |
|
|
| alphanumeric characters, starting | |
|
|
| X.25 Configuration | with a letter. The maximum number |
|
|
|
| of NIs that can be configured on a |
|
|
|
| node is 48. If a node interfaces to more |
|
|
|
| than one network, give each NI on |
|
|
|
| that node a unique name. You will use |
|
|
|
| the NI name with the NETCONTROL |
|
|
|
| command to start the transport and |
|
|
|
| network link. |

|
| remote node. |
