MAS V3.4 PTF02 Function Reference


DLUS Names at the Port Level

With this PTF, you can now specify the DLUS name at the node, port, and linkstation level. If a DLUS name is not specified, then the node level DLUS name is used by the ports and linkstations. However if a DLUS name is specified at the node and port levels, then the port level DLUS name is used for traffic in and out of that particular port. Similarly, if a DLUS name is specified at the linkstation level, then the linkstation DLUS name is used to for traffic in and out of that particular linkstation.

Note:In order to specify DLUS names at the port level, DLUS/DLUR must be enabled at the node level.

Example 1 shows configuring a DLUS name at the port level. In this case, you specify both a primary and a backup DLUS.

Example 1:

APPN config> add port

Example 2 shows changing the specified DLUS name at the port level to the default value.

Example 3 shows using the DLUS values specified at the node level. An explicit DLUS name is not configured at the port level.

Example 4 shows configuring a primary DLUS name at the port level, but not specifying a backup DLUS name. If you do not specify a backup DLUS, this overrides the previously specified node and there will be no backup DLUS

Example 4:

APPN config> add port
