Checksum
for TCP The checksum setting indicates
whether checksumming is optional (N)
or required (Y) for TCP. If this field is
set to N, then the use of checksums is
not requested when communicating
with this node. If this field is set to Y
then checksums are used when
communicating with this node.
Checksumming is required for
communicationto non-HP systems.The
default is N.
PXP PXP must be Y (yes) for all nodes. The
default is Y.
Note that the selection of transport services here must
match the settings in the remote node’s configuration
file. If the checksum enabled field in the path
NETXPORT.GPROT.TCP of this node is set to Y, then
TCP checksum field in the network directory should
also be set to Y.
IP Address One IP address should be entered for each network
interface configured on the remote node that is directly
reachable from this node. Each address must match an
IP address configured in the remote node’s
configuration file. The path of the screen in the
configuration file that contains IP addresses is
NETXPORT.NI.
NIname .PROTOCOL.IP.
Type A number indicating the type of path to configure is

is ROUTER (point-to-point); or when the
NI type is LAN and the destination node
supports probe or ARP; or when the NI
type is TOKEN or FDDI and the
destination node supports ARP.
