Configure
Miscellaneous
Features
Perform these optional tasks to configure miscellaneous features of an
ISO CLNS network:
z
Specify Shortcut NSAP Addresses
z
Use the IP Domain Name System to Discover ISO CLNS Ad
dresses
z
Create Packet-Forwarding Filters and Establish Adjacencies
z
Redistribute Routing Information
z
Specify Preferred Routes
z
Configure ES-IS Hello Packet Parameters
Specify Shortcut NSAP Addresses
You can define a name-to-NSAP address mapping. This name can
then be used in place of typing the long set of numbers associated with
an NSAP address.
In global configuration mode, define a name-to-NSAP address map-
ping:
clns host name nsap
The assigned NSAP name is displayed, where applicable, in
show
and
debug
EXEC commands. However, some effects and requirements
are associated with using names to represent NETs and NSAP ad
dresses.
The
clns host
global configuration command is generated after all
other CLNS commands when the configuration file is parsed. As a re-
sult, you cannot edit the nonvolatile random access memory
(NVRAM) version of the configuration to specifically change the ad-
dress defined in the original
clns host
command. You must spe-
cifically change any commands that refer to the original address. This
affects all commands that accept names.
The commands that are affected by these requirements include:
z
net
(router configuration command
z
clns is-neighbor
(interface configuration command)
z
clns es-neighbor
(interface configuration command)
z
clns route
(global configuration command)
