QUERY_LS
Chapter 4750
Address of the secondary link station.
The value of this parameter depends on how the port
that owns this LS is configured, as follows:
• If the port is used only for incoming calls
(
out_link_act_lim
on DEFINE_SDLC_PORT is
0), this parameter is reserved.
• If the port is switched primary and is used for
outgoing calls (
port_type
is PORT_SWITCHED,
ls_role
is LS_PRI, and
out_link_act_lim
on
DEFINE_SDLC_PORT is a nonzero value), this
parameter is set to either 0xFF to accept whatever
address is configured at the secondary station, or
set it to a 1-byte value in the range 0x01-0xFE (this
value must match the value configured at the
secondary station).
• For all other port configurations, this parameter is
set to a 1-byte value in the range 0x01-0xFE to
identify the link station. If the port is primary
multi-drop (
ls_role
on DEFINE_SDLC_PORT is
LS_PRI and
tot_link_act_lim
is greater than 1),
this address must be different for each LS on the
port.
For QLLC:
ls_detail.def_data.dest_address
Destination address of link station on the adjacent
node. This parameter is used only for SVC outgoing
calls (defined by the
vc_type
parameter in the
link-specific data, and by the link activation limit
parameters on DEFINE_PORT); it is ignored for
incoming calls or for PVC.
For Token Ring, Ethernet, FDDI:
ls_detail.def_data.dest_address.mac_address
MAC address of link station on adjacent node.
If the local and adjacent nodes are on LANs of different
types (one Token Ring or FDDI, the other Ethernet)
connected by a bridge, you will probably need to
reverse the bit order of the bytes in the MAC address.
