3.11.15 MapDest Command

Routers only – Protocol version 3.0

Query or assign matrix destination mappings.  Destination mappings provide a means to remap logical 
destinations to different physical destinations for an added level of convenience when allocating and defining 
system I/Os.

Command

Description

MapDest

Display destination matrix map.  Only destinations are shown which have been
remapped.  One destination number per line is shown separated by a colon ‘:’ 
and the destinations which are substituted for each level separated by commas.

MapDest Dest

Display mapping of a single destination.

MapDest Dest1 Dest2

Assign a destination mapping on all levels for Dest1 to physical Dest2.

MapDest Dest1 Dest2 Level

Assign a destination mapping on a single level for Dest1 to physical Dest2.

Examples

>MapDest

1:4,4
2:3,2

>MapDest 1

1:4,4

>

>MapDest 1, 5

>

>MapDest 1, 6, 2

>

The examples above are for a 2 level router.  The first example queries the entire 
destination map, which shows that destination 1 is remapped to physical destination 4 
on both levels and destination 2 is remapped to destination 3 on the first level and 
destination 2 on the second level.  The second example queries the mapping for a single
destination.  The third example maps destination 1 to physical destination 5 on all 
levels.  The fourth example maps destination 1 to physical destination 6 on the second 
level only.

3.11.16 MapSrc Command

Routers only – Protocol version 3.0

Query or assign matrix source mappings.  Source mappings provide a means to remap logical sources to 
different physical sources for an added level of convenience when allocating and defining system I/Os.

Command

Description

MapSrc

Display source matrix map.  Only sources are shown which have been 
remapped.  One source number per line is shown separated by a colon ‘:’ and 
the sources which are substituted for each level separated by commas.
