ADD PATH Command
•
You must issue a START DEVICE command to start the DEVICE object, which 
must start the data- communications subsystem object before you can use it.
ADD PATH Command
Use the ADD PATH command to define, to the configuration database, IP addresses 
for the MAC addresses on SSC1 and SSC2 on each CLIP. You must use the ADD 
PATH command six or twelve times (depending on the type of concentrator) to define 
all IP addresses to one SWAN concentrator.
The ADD PATH command has this syntax:
conc-name.clip-num.path-name
indicates the path name.
IPADDRESS ip-address
indicates the IP address of the PATH object. The TCP/IP subsystem uses the 
SUBNET named by the specified IP address when establishing connections.
ADD PATH $ZZWAN.#conc-name.clip-num.path-name 
 , IPADDRESS ip-address 
Value: The path name is the name of the SWAN concentrator, followed by 
the CLIP number, followed by the path name.
conc-name is the name of the SWAN concentrator as specified in 
the ADD ADAPTER command.
clip-num is the CLIP number. The possible values for the CLIP 
number are 1, 2, or 3 for a SWAN concentrator and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 
6 for a SWAN 2 concentrator.
path-name is the name of the Ethernet path. The possible values 
for the path name are A or B. A indicates the A Ethernet path. B 
indicates the B Ethernet path.
Default: None provided.
Value: An IP address is a 4-octet (32-bit) numeric value. It is specified in dot-
ted decimal notation, which represents 4 octets in ASCII, separated 
by periods; for example, 133.50.85.43. Each octet value is a number 
in the range 0 through 255.
Default: None provided.
