Adding an Adapter at Initial Configuration
Question How do I add an adapter to the software configuration when the IBM
2216 is being initially configured?
Answer
First, perform installation of the 2216 and install any additional adapters
into the 2216. (The section entitled “2216 FRU Exchange” in the
IBM
2216 Service and Maintenance Manual describes the removal and
replacement procedure.
¹
When the 2216 is initially installed, it does not have any software
configuration.
¹
The operating system will put you at the
Config only>
prompt.
1
Enter add device
type of device.
Note: The steps only create the interface. You still have to use
the net command to configure characteristics unique to that
interface (for example, T/R, Ethernet, PPP, FR, SDLC, X.25). You
also need to use the protocol command to configure protocols on
the interface.
For example, add device token
or, add device ? to see a list of device choices
2
Enter the device slot number (1–8).
3
If you are adding an interface on a single-port adapter, go to step
4 on page B-5. Otherwise, continue with this step.
Enter the port number (0–7, depending on the type of adapter).
The range of port numbers supported depends on the multi-port
adapter type:
¹
For the Token-Ring (FC 2280) and Ethernet (FC 2281)
adapters, port numbers 1 and 2 are supported.
¹
For the 8-port EIA-232E/V.24 (FC 2282) and 8-port X.21
adapters, port numbers 0–7 are supported.
