The following files are in the FREEWAY directory:
• README.ppp provides general information about the protocol software
• RELNOTES.ppp provides specific information about the current release of the
protocol software
• RELHIST.ppp provides information about previous releases of the protocol soft-
ware
For older Simpact software releases prior to June 1, 1998, the executable object for the
protocol software,
ppp_FW_2432.MEM, was distributed in the [FREEWAY.ICP-
CODE.ICPXXXX.PROTOCOLS]
directory. For releases after June 1, 1998, this file is in
the
[FREEWAY.BOOT] directory.
For software releases prior to June 1, 1998, the executable object for the system-services
module,
XIO_2432.MEM, was distributed in the [FREEWAY.ICP-
CODE.ICPXXXX.OSIMPACT]
directory. For releases after June 1, 1998, this file is in the
[FREEWAY.BOOT] directory. The load files provided with protocols with a release date
prior to June 1, 1998 contain a fully qualified path for the protocol and XIO image files.
Such files should be modified to remove the path to the XIO image. This allows your
system to boot the local copy of the XIO image provided in the [
FREEWAY.BOOT]
directory.

Step 2: To install the protocol software from a VMS formatted media using the
VMSINSTAL utility, refer to Section 2.3 on page23. To install the protocol software
from a VMS
BACKUP saveset, refer Section 2.4 on page 27.
