DELETE Command
•
Alias IP addresses are added by using the ALTER SUBNET, ADDALIAS
command. This consideration documents the failover behavior of alias IP
addresses.
If the SUBNET is configured for failover, all IP aliases are also configured for
failover as long as the IP alias address is added to both SUBNETs in the failover
pair. This arrangement is true for both SHARED and NONSHARED failover
configurations. If the alias IP address is only added to one SUBNET in a failover
pair, the alias IP address does not switch to another SUBNET when its SUBNET
fails.
•
The behavior of the alias IP address in the case of Ethernet failover, nonshared IP,
is different from the behavior of a regular IP address. When a local network device
issues an ARP request for one of the failover pairs with a regular IP address, only
one SUBNET responds. Both LIFs pass the ARP request to the TCP6MON but
only the SUBNET that has the IP address assigned to it answers. In the case of IP
alias addresses, however, each SUBNET responds to the ARP request. Both the
SUBNETs consider the alias address to be its own. When more than one alias IP
address is assigned to a SUBNET, each SUBNET considers all the alias
addresses to be its own and sends gratuitous ARP requests for all the addresses.
•
You cannot use the ALTER SUBNET command to alter the LNPTPLIST attribute.
DELETE Command
The DELETE command removes entry names, SUBNETs, and routes from the
NonStop TCP/IPv6 subsystem. You cannot delete a process or a TCP6MON. (To
delete TCP6MONs from the subsystem, see the ABORT MON Command for
TCP6MAN on page 8-14.)
This is a sensitive command.
DELETE ENTRY Command for TCP6MAN
The DELETE ENTRY command removes entries from the ARP table. Entries can be
deleted by specifying the entry name or by specifying the IP address. Specifying the IP
address is the only way dynamically added entries can be deleted.
Command Syntax
OUT file-spec
causes any SCF output generated for this command to be directed to the specified
file.
