Step 1 (C): Select a Process and SUBNET for CIP
Use
Step 1 (C): Select a Process and SUBNET for
CIP Use
Step 1 (C) is for use with CIP only.
Select a CIPSAM Process
The CIP socket access method (CIPSAM) is a process that provides programs access
to the CIP environment. Use a CIPSAM process name for the ASSOCIATEDEV modifier
in Step 4: Create the Line-Handler Process while configuring Expand-over-IP with CIP
environment.
To obtain a list of running CIPSAM processes, run this SCF LISTDEV command:
-> LISTDEV TCPIP
The SCF LISTDEV command lists all the TCP/IP processes. A program name in the
SCF LISTDEV display of CIPSAM indicates a CIP socket access method process.
Note the process name and use Example 8-5 that shows a sample result of the SCF
LISTDEV TCPIP command.
In this example, there is one CIPSAM process called $ZSAM0.
Obtain an IP Address to associate with your Expand Line-
Handler Process
To obtain an IP address for Expand communications, issue the SCF INFO SUBNET
command for the INFO process.
->INFO SUBNET $ZSAM0.*
From the displayed devices, select an Ethernet device and note the IP address.
Example 8-6 shows the output of the SCF INFO SUBNET command.
Note. The following instructions assume that a CIP environment has already been started. For
information on starting a CIP environment, see the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration
and Management Manual.
