Managing the DECserver 90L+
Accessing MOP from ULTRIX
On ULTRIX operating systems, the console carrier is a separate utility included
as part of the MOP option. The option is part of the regular distribution but
is not selected by default and is not included in the basic installation. You can
install MOP from the original distribution media by using the setld utility. You
must have superuser privileges to invoke console carrier.
After the MOP option is installed, each DECserver 90L+ to be managed must be
given a name and a dummy node number, using the addnode utility. For example:
# addnode 13.1 DS90L
After the name and node number is assigned, you can establish the link at any
time by using the ccr command:
#
ccr -n DS90L -h 08-00-2B-08-32-2B -c sva-0
In this example, the -h qualifier is followed by the station address of the
DECserver 90L+ unit to be attached. The -c qualifier is followed by the name
of the Ethernet circuit to use for the connection. Table 4–2 is a partial list of
Ethernet circuit names, based on system type.
