Configuring the Analyzer
The analyzer can be configured dynamically, as needed, and this is the
recommended method. The analyzer is configured dynamically by the
following steps:
• For 8-Channel EISA or NIO multiplexers connect an analyzer cable.
• Start the ACC subsystem with the daemon pcapture running (this
can be added to the zmasterd_list configuration file).
•Use pdisplay to configure (use the runc command), start and stop
the analyzer.
•Use pdisplay to view the captured X.25 or ISDN traffic.
The analyzer can also be configured manually by adding the appropriate
entries to the network configuration file (see “Network Configuration” on
page 43 for more details). This file contains the initial configuration for
the ACC Multiplexer subsystem. The configuration steps in this case
would be:
• Connect an analyzer cable for 8-Channel EISA or NIO multiplexers.
• Configure the required analyzer ports as in Appendix A, “Network
Configuration,” on page 43.
• Start the ACC subsystem with the daemon pcapture running (this
can be added to the zmasterd_list configuration file).
•Use pdisplay to start and stop the analyzer.
•Use pdisplay to view the captured X.25 or ISDN traffic.
Dynamic Set-Up of Analyzer Configuration
The analyzer can be conveniently configured and set up to run on
specified ports/sub-channels using the runc command. The runc
command configures the required ZCOM table entries (including ZLU
numbers) for the specified port/subchannel before starting the capture
and optional displaying of data.
