SNPA ENTRY Objects

You use SNPA ENTRY objects to configure NSP processes. You add an SNPA ENTRY

object to your subsystem to do the following:

•

Assign an NSP process to handle all connections that use this SNPA address.

•

If the NSP process is provided by X25AM, assign a Network Layer profile (a Layer

3 subdevice configuration) that characterizes all X.25 connections that use this

SNPA address.

An SNPA ENTRY is required for each local SNPA address an ENTRY object is not

required for remote SNPA addresses.

A single TLAM (with D-series releases) or PAM (with G06 and above releases) NSP

process can have only one SNPA address assigned to it. A single X25AM NSP process,

however, can have several SNPA addresses assigned to it.

NSAP ENTRY Objects

You use NSAP ENTRY objects to register NSAP addresses and configure Transport

Layer information. Both local and remote NSAP addresses must be configured.

Registering Local NSAP Addresses

You add an NSAP ENTRY object to your subsystem to do the following:

•

Assign this local NSAP address to a local SNPA address.

•

Assign a TSP process to handle all connections that use this NSAP address.

•

Assign a local Transport Layer profile (a Layer 4 subdevice configuration) that

characterizes all transport connections that use this local NSAP address.

•

Define the addressing mode used by the network accessed through this NSAP.

If you choose to specify the TSP process (the server) and the Layer 4 profile in the

APPL ENTRY, the NSAP ENTRY needs to specify only the SNPA address (required)

and the addressing mode (optional).

An NSAP ENTRY is required for each local NSAP address.

Each NSAP address can be assigned to at most one TSP process. The same TSP process,

however, can have more than one NSAP address assigned to it.

Each local NSAP address can be assigned to at most one local SNPA address. The same

local SNPA address, however, can have more than one local NSAP address assigned to

it.
