Operational Notes
For the ALTER SU command to be successful, the specified subdevices must be in
the STOPPED state.
The combination of the SU attributes ZNSP-DEV, ZCLASS, ZX25DESTADDR,
ZIP-X25-SNDCF, ZIP-NULL-LAYER, ZLOC-NSAP, ZRMT-NSAP, ZLAN-
LOC-SNPA, and ZLAN-RMT-SNPA and the Layer 3 SERVICE attribute
ZESIS-ENABLE determines the protocol stack below the Transport Layer.
Tables 5-4 and 5-5, in the description of the ADD SU command, show how to
select the correct combination of attributes to obtain the desired protocol.
If a subdevice is configured to operate in conjunction with the ES-IS protocol at the
Network Layer, it should be aborted before you attempt to alter the NSAP or
SNPA addresses.
