Task 1: Plan Your Configuration
To select a LIF, use the STATUS LIF command with the DETAIL option:
->STATUS LIF $ZZLAN.L018, DETAIL
This command displays the access list and owning processor:
CPUs with Data Path lists processors that have an actual data path through
the physical interface (PIF) associated with $ZZLAN.L018.
Potential Access CPUs lists processors that have a potential data path
through the PIF associated with $ZZLAN.L018.
When using the TACL RUN command to start IPXPROTO, you must choose a
processor from the actual access list as the primary and a processor from the
potential access list as the backup.
5. Will users of NonStop™ services be printing to NetWare printers?
If yes, configure a user ID on the NetWare LAN for use by the LAN Print Spooler
for NetWare process on the NonStop™ Himalaya S-series server.
Note. NonStop™ IPX/SPX supports both Ethernet or token-ring LANs. An Ethernet or token-
ring LIF name usually takes the form L0xx. You can use the SCF INFO LIF command (with or
without the DETAIL option) to verify the LIF type.
You can change the LIF names, but we recommend that you do so only if you understand the
system very well.

Note. LIFs associated with different adapters can have different access lists since the
adapters can be configured with different access lists. See the Ethernet Adapter
Installation and Support Guide, the Token-Ring Adapter Installation and Support Guide,
and the LAN Configuration and Management Manual for details.
