IBM SC30-3681-08 manual Syntax Buffer, Network# or rangeofnetwork#, Interface

GWCON Process

In the ®rst example, the router was booted using TFTP over Ethernet. The message indicates the method of booting, the line number, the CSR (Command and Status Register) address, the IP address, the ®lename, the host, and the gateway. Theline number distinguishes one port from another on a multiport board. The CSR address (the ®rst of the two values in parentheses) identi®es which interface board slot was used to boot the router.

The IP address listed after ªasº (128.185.227.220 in this example) indicates which IP address the router used as its own IP address. The Filename is the name of the ®le that has the load image. The IP address listed afterHost is the IP address of the server where the ®le is stored. TheGateway, if listed, is the router that routes the requests and responses between the server and the router that is booting.

Example 2:

boot

Manual Booted using Integrated Boot Device Loadname vl.ver1

In the second example, the router was booted manually using the Integrated Boot Device (IBD). Manual indicates that the boot information was entered manually at boot time.

Buffer

Use the buffer command to display information about packet buffers assigned to each interface or range of interfaces.

Note: Each buffer on a device is the same size and is dynamically built. Buffers vary in size from one device to another.

To display information about one interface only, enter the interface or network number as part of the command. To obtain the interface number, use the GWCON con®guration command.

Syntax:

buffer [network# or range_of_network#]

To display information about multiple interfaces, specify the range_of_network# (or a combination of network# and range_of_network#). For example, specifying buffer 0 3 25-50displays the information for nets 0, 3, and 25 through 50.

Example:

buffer		Input	Buffers:			Buffer sizes:
Nt	Interface	Req	Alloc	Low Curr		Hdr	Wrap	Data	Trail Total		Bytes Alloc
0	TKR/0	20	20	7	0	109	92	2052	7	2260	45200
1	PPP/0	20	20	7	20	109	92	2052	7	2260	45200
2	PPP/1	10	10	4	0	108	92	2048	0	2248	22480

Nt Network interface number associated with the software.

Interface

Type of interface.

Input Buffers:

Req Number of buffers requested.

Alloc Number of buffers allocated.
