Route Command Options

 

 

 

 

Argument

Description

 

 

 

 

-w

Write this action (add or delete) to the ots_routes configuration file

 

 

making the change permanent. The default is no write.

 

 

 

 

-mMask

Network ID mask. Mask is a bit mask, specified in hex digits. It specifies

 

 

how may bits in the network ID are significant when resolving addresses.

 

 

For instance, with Mask of FFF8, the first 15 bits will be used when

 

 

matching the route entry to the destination NSAP. If no -moption is

 

 

specified, a mask of N F’s will be used, where N is the number of hex digits

 

 

in the NSAP/network ID.

 

 

 

 

 

NSAP Commands

 

 

Network Service Access Point (NSAP) addresses are used to identify real

 

 

systems unambiguously on a network. Dynamic NSAPs are used for high

 

 

availability clusters running the MC/ServiceGuard product, which

 

 

automatically shares NSAPs when a node or its network

 

 

communications fail. Use the following commands to add, delete, and

 

 

show dynamic NSAPs for local CONS/CLNS subnetworks. See the

 

 

manpages for these commands for more information.

 

 

otsaddnsap

 

 

ADD: Adds a local NSAP to OTS configuration for a specified network

 

 

service.

 

 

otsaddnsap service nsapvalue [silent]

 

 

The silent option means the added NSAP is never broadcast in the

 

 

ESH packet.

 

 

otsdelnsap

 

 

DELETE: Deletes a local NSAP from OTS configuration. The

 

 

default/main NSAP configured via osiadmin cannot be deleted with

 

 

otsdelnsap.

 

 

otsdelnsap (nsapvalue)
