Considerations
PATH { A | B }
is the path (A or B) on the CLIP specified by clipnum that you prefer. The path
must be configured.
NEXTSYS sys_number
is a required modifier that specifies the number (from 0 to 254) of the system
connected to the other end of the line. If you do not specify the NEXTSYS modifier,
it defaults to an invalid value (255) and an operator message occurs during the
initialization of the Expand line-handler process. The path will not be operational
until you alter NEXTSYS to a valid value using either the WAN subsystem SCF
ALTER DEVICE command or the Expand subsystem SCF ALTER PATH
command.
modifier_keyword
is the name of an optional modifier in profile_name. modifier_keyword is
added to the device record for this Expand line-handler process.
Modifier names in the PEXQSSWN and PEXQSSAT profiles are listed in Profile
Modifiers on page 7-12.
modifier_value
is the value you want to assign to the optional modifier specified by
modifier_keyword. modifier_value assigns a value to modifier_keyword
in the device record for this Expand line-handler process.
Default values and ranges of values for modifiers in the PEXQSSWN and
PEXQSSAT profiles are described in Profile Modifiers on page 7-12.
Considerations
Not all modifiers have associated values (for example, L4EXTPACKETS_ON).
The modifier_keyword and modifier_value parameters do not add the
specified modifier, or a modifier and its associated value, to the profile used by the
device. Use the ADD PROFILE command to add a modifier, or a modifier and its
associated value, to a profile.
Examples
In the first example, a device named $DIR6 is created for a single-line direct-connect
line-handler process that uses a SWAN concentrator named S01. The
PATHBLOCKBYTES modifier enables the multipacket frame feature.
