Model NGA 2000 Platform
Excel-Based PC Interface Multiple Platform
Systems
See Figure 11-4 for an illustration of how a
multiple-Platform system might be configured
in conjunction with a PC Interface package.
Note the daisy-chaining function of the Eche-
lon Model 71000 Router, which interconnects
with the Platform on one side and both routers
and SLTAs on the other.
The router must be configured correctly. The
program called MAKE_API.EXE can do this,
among other things. Run it in a DOS window,
using the switch -R, as in “MAKE_API -R”. It
will detect and configure any routers present.
The program can be interrupted once it has
done this.
