Procedure 17: Creating a configuration file

Meridian Link and CCR are shipped with a default link configuration for the links. The default configuration is shipped in the following file or files:

¥AML (link 0): /usr/mlusr/conf/hdlcmlnk.datafile

¥Host Link (link 1): /usr/mlusr/conf/x25hlnk.datafile (Meridian Link only)

¥MML (link 2): /usr/mlusr/conf/vlink.datafile (Meridian Link only)

If you have changed the default configuration in Procedure 13, 14, or 15, you can do one of the following:

¥Use this procedure to store the changed configuration in another file, so preserving the default configuration.

¥Use Procedure 15 to replace the default configuration.

1Use Procedure 13, 14, or 15 to change configuration parameters.

2At the Òmlusr>Ó prompt, type save link x filename (where x is the link number and filename is a file name that you choose), and press [Return].

Figure 262 is an example of saving parameters for link number 0 in a file called Òsavedata.Ó The configuration file must be located in the /usr/mlusr/conf directory.
