Dynamic Routing Commands

NOTE The X.25 parameters (for example, ﬂow control, fast select, etc.) can only

take effect if the X.25 card conﬁguration allow the parameters to be

negotiated.

Route Commands

Routes specify paths to nodes that can be reached via an intermediate

system. A route may specify such a path for a single system by using a

full NSAP, or groups of NSAPs by using their Network ID. (A Network

ID is an NSAP preﬁx common to a group of destination NSAPs that can

all be reached through the same intermediate system.)

-P pid Specifying this option causes a destination protocol identiﬁer (PID) to be

conﬁgured for this destination. This value is speciﬁed as 2 to 16 hexadecimal

digits (must be an even number of digits) or the word “NULL” (without the

quotes). If you use a hexadecimal value, this value is used as the destination

PID on connection requests to the end system. If the PID is conﬁgured

“NULL”, the NULL PID is used, This option is only valid for end systems

connected over CONS/X.25. If no option is speciﬁed, OTS chooses the

destination PID. Refer to the dest_pid parameter.

-s Fast Select off. Specifying this options disallows user data to be sent with

call set-up and clear packets. This is the default.

-S Fast Select off. Specifying this options allows user data to be sent with call

set-up and clear packets.

-t Throughput Class Negotiation off. Specifying this option disallows

throughput class to be negotiated. This is the default.

-T Throughput Class Negotiation on. Specifying this option allows throughput

class to be negotiated.

-w Write this action (add or delete) to the ots_dests conﬁguration ﬁle. Default

is no write.

-Ccug Closed User Group. cug speciﬁes the closed user group to which this end

system belongs. cug is four decimal digits long, padded on the left with zeros.
