Adding ENTRY Objects
Adding TSEL ENTRY Objects
You add TSEL ENTRY objects to register new TSEL identifiers with your subsystem.
The following two commands add two new TSEL identifiers and assign them to the
same TAPS process. Since a Layer 5 PROFILE object is not assigned, all Session Layer
subdevices that use either of these TSEL addresses are configured with the default
parameters defined by the Layer 5 SERVICE object:
ADD ENTRY $OSIM.#TSEL.0010, L5SERVER $OSIM.#TAPS.L5A
ADD ENTRY $OSIM.#TSEL.0011, L5SERVER $OSIM.#TAPS.L5A
As with NSAP addresses, you may need to explicitly assign each new TSEL identifier to
the APPL ENTRY objects that use it. You make these assignments by adding or altering
APPL ENTRY objects, as described below. You do not need to do this, however, if the
applications include TSEL identifiers in their APS procedure calls.
Adding APPL ENTRY Objects
APPL ENTRY objects are optional OSI/AS elements. You use APPL ENTRY objects to
register application names (AE title) along with OSI address information in the MIB.
You can register both local and remote application addresses; however, you need to
supply this addressing information only if the local application does not supply the
information itself.
In cases where you need to register address information for a local application, you must
supply at least an NSAP address and a TSEL identifier. The OSI manager process uses
these address elements to select the processes that will service connection requests from
the application, as described below. You should include APTITLE and AEQUALIFIER
only if they are required by the application.
The following command registers a local application with the name LOCAL1:
ADD ENTRY $OSIM.#APPL.LOCAL1, NSAP 9A0001 &
, TSEL 0011 &
, SSEL 0002
Both the NSAP 9A0001 and the TSEL 0011 must be registered in the MIB. To see how
the OSI manager process uses this information, consider the commands that add SNPA,
NSAP, and TSEL ENTRY objects:
•
The command to add an SNPA ENTRY object assigns an NSP server process to the
SNPA. For example:
ADD ENTRY $OSIM.#SNPA.0001, L3SERVER $OSIM.#NSP.L3A
•
The command to add an NSAP ENTRY object associates an SNPA address and
assigns a TSP server process to the NSAP. For example:
ADD ENTRY $OSIM.#NSAP.9A0001, SNPA 0001 &
, L4SERVER $OSIM.#TSP.L4A
In this example, the APPL ENTRY object called LOCAL1 references NSAP
9A0001. The OSI manager process, therefore, selects TSP process
