Configuring gated

Configuration Overview

1.Retain a copy of the gated 3.0 configuration file, because you cannot specify the same file for input and output while running the conv_config conversion tool. For example, if you are using /etc/gated.conf for 3.0, type the following command:

cp /etc/gated.conf /etc/gated.conf.30

2.Issue the following command at the HP-UX prompt:

conv_config < input_config_file_name > output_config_file where

input_config_file_name is the name of the gated 3.0 file you want to convert. You must specify this name, because the tool does not assume that you are converting the default file, /etc/gated.conf.

output_config_file is the name of the new configuration file for gated 3.5.9. You must specify this name, because the tool does not assume that you are coverting the default file, /etc/gated.conf.

For example, to convert the gated 3.0 configuration file to gated 3.5.9, issue the following command:

conv_config < /etc/gated.conf.30 > /etc/gated.conf

After running the conversion tool, you can check the new configuration file for compatibility using the gated -ccommand. See the Note in the section “Configuration Overview” on page 45 for more information.
