Introduction

To configure CHARON-VAX networking, follow these 3 steps:

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" or "tap_port" 

   Load "packet_port" or "tap_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 = "eth0"

   Divclass

   
   

3. pagebreak

   Connect the loaded "packet_port" ("tap_port") to the loaded virtual network adapter

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

   set NIC interface = NDIS

SGEC Ethernet Controller

The built-in SGEC controller emulator ("eza") has the following parameters that are specified with the "set" command:
