Task 2: Install and Configure NonStop™ IPX/SPX
5. Ensure that there is at least one NetWare file server running on the network.
6. Create and start the IPXPROTO process by either using SCF or using a TACL RUN
command:
•
Starting IPXPROTO by using SCF:
Start SCF and create and start the IPXPROTO process.
a. Enter SCF at the TACL prompt:
>SCF
b. Enter the following commands to create and start the IPXPROTO process
(in this example, $ZNV2) on the LIF. The sample codefile is
$system.zipxpro.ipxproto, which is the default installation
location for this file.
Ethernet LAN Example:
-> ADD PROCESS $ZMGR.$ZNV2, &
CODEFILE $SYSTEM.ZIPXPRO.IPXPROTO, &
IOPORTNAME "L018.IPX8023"
-> INFO PROCESS $ZNV2, DETAIL
-> START PROCESS $ZNV2
-> STATUS PROCESS $ZNV2
Token-Ring LAN Example:
-> ADD PROCESS $ZMGR.$ZNV2, &
CODEFILE $SYSTEM.ZIPXPRO.IPXPROTO, &
IOPORTNAME "L018.IPXSNAP"
-> INFO PROCESS $ZNV2, DETAIL
-> START PROCESS $ZNV2
-> STATUS PROCESS $ZNV2
•
Starting an IPXPROTO process with a TACL RUN command:
Alternatively, you can start the IPXPROTO process by using a TACL RUN
command. Enter the following command at the TACL prompt, specifying the
same processors as used for the IPXPROTO process under, Which logical
interface (LIF) will the IPX protocol (IPXPROTO) process run in? on page 1-2:
> RUN IPXPROTO /NAME name, CPU p_cpu,&
[IN filtername,] [PRI pri,] [NOWAIT] / b_cpu
filtername takes the form LIF-name.filterprotocol, where
filterprotocol corresponds to the frame type of the NetWare network.
The following example shows the above command with values specified for all
variables:
> RUN IPXPROTO /NAME $ZNV2, CPU 2,&
IN L018.IPX8023, PRI 180, NOWAIT / 3
Creating an IPXPROTO process through the TACL RUN command starts the
IPXPROTO process with default values, as shown in Table 1-2.
