2. Prepare to Install and Configure the Subsystem
1. Check for any issues that affect your configuration. See the TCP/IPv6 Migration
Guide.
2. Ensure that the PROTOCOL configuration file in $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP was updated
with the ipv6 and icmpv6 lines from the SMPLPROT file on the Site Update Tape
(SUT). See PROTOCOL File on page D-13.
3. Select a LIF of TYPE ETHERNET for communications.
a. Obtain a list of all LIFs. Enter this command at the SCF prompt:
(Do not select LANX or LANY.)
b. Using one of the LIF names from Step 3, determine if the LIF is of TYPE
ETHERNET by issuing this command at the SCF prompt:
c. Ensure that the LIF you are configuring for NonStop TCP/IPv6 is accessible to
all processors on which you plan to run NonStop TCP/IPv6 by entering this
command at the SCF prompt:
The “CPUs with Data Path” field lists the processors to which the LIF is
accessible.
d. Make a note of this LIF name for later configuration.
e. Check if the TCP6MAN process has been added as a generic process to the
system configuration database by entering this command at the SCF prompt.
(If ZZTCP has not been added as a generic process, perform IIA. Install
NonStop TCP/IPv6 (#ZZTCP is not in the Configuration Database) on page 1-4
for your installation step. If ZZTCP has been added as a generic process,
perform IIB. Install NonStop TCP/IPv6 (#ZZTCP is in the Configuration
Database) on page 1-5 for your installation step.)
4. Save the system configuration database by entering the SCF command. Substitute
the numbering scheme for your system for the variable (01.04). For information
about numbering versions of your system configuration database, see the SCF
->STATUS LIF $ZZLAN.*
->INFO LIF $ZZLAN.L01A
->STATUS LIF $ZZLAN.L01A, DETAIL
Note. To use Ethernet failover and also to service Ethernet 4 ServerNet adapters (E4SAs) or
Gigabit Ethernet 4-port ServerNet adapters (G4SAs) without taking down TCP/IP
communications, select two LIFs from different adapters.
