TS Supplement (Includes RFC-1006 Support)

Configuring OSI/TS

RFC-1006 Subsystem Configuration

107751 Tandem Computers Incorporated 2–13

TSP Process in Client Role

NSPDEVICE is required and must specify TCP/IP1. REMOTENSAP is required and

specifies the remote IP address on the server side of the connection. LOCALNSAP is

optional. If you don’t specify it, TCP/IP uses its routing table to determine which

local IP address or subnet to use and will use whatever subnet is available.

Examples 1 and 2 associate the SUs with the local TCP/IP process and the remote IP

addresses.

Example 1:

#lan1a with TCP/IP1 and with IPAddress3

#lan1b with TCP/IP1 and with IPAddress4

#lan1c with TCP/IP1 and with IPAddress3

Example 2:

#lan2a with TCP/IP1 and with IPAddress4

#lan2b with TCP/IP1 and with IPAddress4

#lan2c with TCP/IP1 and with IPAddress4

TSP Process in Server Role

NSPDEVICE is required and must specify TCP/IP2. REMOTENSAP is ignored.

LOCALNSAP is required and specifies the local IP address on the server side of the

connection.

Examples 1 and 2 associate the SUs with the local TCP/IP process and the local IP

addresses.

Example 1:

#lan3a with TCP/IP2 and with IPAddress3

#lan3b with TCP/IP2 and with IPAddress3

#lan3c with TCP/IP2 and with IPAddress3

Example 2:

#lan4a with TCP/IP2 and with IPAddress4

#lan4b with TCP/IP2 and with IPAddress4

#lan4c with TCP/IP2 and with IPAddress4

In the server role, when there is more than one TSP process, once an IP address has

been assigned to any SU on a particular TSP server, other TSP servers cannot use the

same IP address. This is a restriction due to the listener role that the TSP process

performs. In this example if the SUs on TSP3 (#lan3a, #lan3b, and #lan3c) specify

IPAddress3, the SUs on TSP4 (#lan4a, #lan4b, and #lan4c) would then all have to be

assigned to the other local IP address.

New OSI/TS Startup

PARAMs for RFC-1006

The PARAM command is used to set process and service values that are used when

OSI/TS is started. The parameters set for a particular TSP process are in effect for all

the applications using that TSP process. A list of the PARAM parameters that OSI/TS

supports can be found in the Tandem OSI/TS Manual. When using RFC-1006, the LAN-

related PARAMs no longer apply. For RFC-1006, there are two new parameters.
