14 Sun OC48 Packet Over Sonet Adapter Installation and User’s Guide • December 2001
Note – Each Sun OC48 Packet Over Sonet adapter consists of four instances (four
virtual devices). Each instance is capable of handling a separate interrupt. However,
only the instance that corresponds to the “a11” device is significant to the user.
2. Determine the instance number.
Determine the instance number by the following method.
■
Using Step 1, above, find the instance for a11.
■
Use the instance number that corresponds to a11 for configuration.
3. Copy files and modify options.
■
Copy the
/etc/ips/ips.cf.template
file into the
/etc/ips/ips.cf
file.
■
Modify the /etc/ips/ips.cf by adding the following line to the end of the file or to
where instructed by the comments inside the file:
The example above uses the instance, ips0. Verify that in your system the instance
number corresponds to device a11.
4. Copy
/etc/ppp/options.ips.template
to
/etc/ppp/options.ips 0
Use the instance number that corresponds with device a11 in your system. This
example uses instance 0, so the file name is
options.ips0
. Modify the
options.ipsN
file accordingly.
5. Modify the
options.ipsN
file on each system
Modify the
options.ips0
file on each system by changing the IP addresses. Use
the following example.
■
Configure the local address on each system.
■
On system A: 192.12.25.10:
■
On system B: 192.12.25.24:
■
The
unit
option:
■
Place the instance number, N, in the unit option
■
Example:
The value of N must be the same as the instance number. In our example the
instance number is 0, and it corresponds with the file name, options.ips0. The
instance number in your system might have a different value.
