ADD Command
ADD Command
ADD is a sensitive command that defines an object to the PAM subsystem. The fully
qualified name assigned to the created object must be unique. The ADD command
changes the specified object from an unknown entity to a PAM object in the defined
summary state. You do not have to use SCF interactively to add objects to the PAM
environment. You can write an SCF OBEY file or a DSM management application
program that automatically adds and starts all of the objects in your subsystem.
If an attribute for a given object is not assigned a value in the ADD command, the
attribute’s default value is used. However, some attributes do not have default values,
so you must assign values to those attributes in the ADD command. Brackets indicate
required attributes ({}).
The ADD command does not support wild-card characters.
ADD PORT Command
The ADD PORT command creates a PORT object.
Command Syntax
OUT file-spec
directs any SCF output generated for this command to the specified file.
PORT port-name
is the name of the port.
ADDRESS port-address
defines the address for all traffic through the port. For Ethernet-type ports, this
attribute is the protocol-type field of the raw Ethernet header. For an LLC1-type
port, this attribute is the destination link service access point (DLSAP) found in
inbound frames and the source link service access point (SLSAP) found in
outbound frames. The value specified can be up to four hexadecimal digits. The
ADDRESS attribute is required.
An LLC2 port can only be added through the SNAX SCF interface.
