ROUTE Object Type
the display is “Program.” A program name of TCP6SAM indicates a NonStop TCP/IPv6
process while a program name of TCPIP indicates a conventional TCP/IP process.
To obtain a list of all running NonStop TCP/IPv6 processes, enter the SCF LISTDEV
TCPIPV6 command. (This command also gives you a list of the running TCP6MON
objects.) Again, the process type (TCP6MON or TCP6MAN) is identified in the
program field.
ROUTE Object Type
The ROUTE object is the path a data packet travels to reach its destination. Instead of
specifying a full path, a route specifies the packet’s first host address and the packet’s
destination. The first host then routes the packet to the next appropriate address
in-route to the destination. This sequence repeats until the packet reaches the
destination.
Often, a NonStop server routes all packets to a default host, which in turn maintains a
more complete routing table.
Each time you add a SUBNET, several routes are created automatically. You can add
more routes as necessary.
You must assign a unique ROUTE object name to each route associated with a given
process. The ROUTE object name can have at most seven alphanumeric characters.
The first character must be a letter. Table 8-1 shows an example of ROUTE object
naming conventions. Names starting with ND, DD, DA, RT, DR, and EA are reserved.
To omit the process name and period and just specify the route name, set the default
process name with the ASSUME command. For more information about the ASSUME
command, including the required syntax, see the SCF Reference Manual for G-Series
RVUs or the SCF Reference Manual for H-Series RVUs.
