Administration Commands

define_tr_dlc, define_ethernet_dlc, define_fddi_dlc

A text string describing the DLC. SNAplus2 uses this string for information only. It is stored in the node’s configuration file and returned on the query_dlc command.

neg_ls_supp

Specifies whether the DLC supports negotiable link stations. You cannot change the negotiable link support for an existing DLC; this parameter can be specified only when creating a new DLC. Possible values are as follows:

YES

Negotiable link stations are supported; link stations using this DLC can be primary, secondary, or negotiable.

NO

Negotiable link stations are not supported; link stations using this DLC must be primary or secondary.

adapter_number

Adapter number used by the DLC.

This is the same as the “Card Instance Number” for the adapter card. To determine this number, run the lanscan command on the server where the card is installed.

initially_active

Specifies whether this DLC is automatically started when the node is started. Possible values are:

YES

The DLC is automatically started when the node is started.

NO

The DLC is automatically started only if a port or LS that uses it is defined as initially active; otherwise, it must be manually started.

The following parameter is used only for Ethernet:

lan_type

Type of Ethernet network. Possible values are:

802_3
