Summary of Configuration Steps
Once all hardware and software requirements have been met (refer to Required
Hardware and Software on page 13-1 for details), configuring Expand-over-FOX
connections involves the following steps:
Step 1: Create a Profile for the Expand-Over-
FOX Line-Handler Process
You can create a profile for the Expand-over-FOX line-handler processes using the
PEXQSFX profile. This profile is provided in the $SYSTEM.SYSnn subvolume. You can
also create a new profile from an existing profile, or you can create your own profile.
For complete information about profiles, refer to the WAN Subsystem Configuration
and Management Manual.
This subsection shows you how to create a profile using PEXQSFX.
ADD Profile Command
To create a profile from the PEXQSFX profile template provided, use the WAN
subsystem SCF ADD PROFILE command. The command syntax is as follows:
