  1. Load network adapter (if required)

    If you are configuring a DEQNA, DESQA, DELQA, DEUNA, DELUA, DEMNA, DEBNI or PMADAA adapter, use the "load" command as shown below. CHARON-VAX 3100/96/98 and 4000/106/108 emulations automatically load SGEC (with the name "EZA") and therefore no "load" command is required.

    Example:

    load DELQA/DEQNA NIC

              .


  2. Load "packet_port"

    Load "packet_port" to connect the SGEC, DEQNA, DESQA, DELQA, DEUNA, DELUA, DEMNA, DEBNI or PMADAA adapter to the host hardware network card (or to a virtual network interface).

    Example:

    load packet_port/chnetwrk NDIS interface = "connection:Charon"

               .


  3. Connect the loaded "packet_port" to the loaded virtual network adapter

    Connect the SGEC, DEQNA, DESQA, DELQA, DEUNA, DELUA, DEMNA, DEBNI or PMADAA adapter to the "packet_port" by setting the interface name.

    Example

    set NIC interface = NDIS
Info

The interface name can be either "(disabled)" for a disabled interface or "connection:<Windows network interface name>"

Examples:

set NIC1 interface="(disabled)"

set NIC2 interface="connection:CHARON_NIC"

Parameterstation_address
Type

Text String

Value

The "station_address" provides the ability to configure the adapter’s permanent address. By default the adapter’s permanent address is read from the host system’s NIC.

Set the "station_address" when you need to configure a satellite (remotely booted) system that will run DECnet or when the migrated software uses the permanent address on the network adapter.

Format:

XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

or

XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

Example:

set eza station_address="AF:01:AC:78:1B:CC"
