B.1.2 ICP-resident Software
ICP-resident software includes any software that runs on the Freeway ICPs. This soft-
ware is in the
freeway/boot directory (for example, xio_2432.mem, sps_fw_2432.mem,and
fmp_fw_2432.mem). Prior to June 1, 1998, these files were distributed in separate subdi-
rectories under the
freeway/icpcode directory. As a result, the freeway/boot/ pppload 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 Freeway to boot the local copy of the XIO image pro-
vided in the
boot directory with the current Freeway server release.
If you move any of these files, you must modify the path in the load file to point to the
new location. For a description of the load file, refer to Chapter2.
B.1.3 Client-resident Software
Client-resident software includes any software that runs as a client to the Freeway server
msgmux (message multiplexor) task, whether it runs on a remote client or on the Free-
way server itself. This software consists of test programs and application program inter-
faces (DLI/TSI) described in the following sections.
In general, software built on client machines links with the DLI/TSI library file in the
freeway/client/op-sys/lib directory, where op-sys is the identifier for the operating system
you are using. For convenience, you can move this library file into a working directory
for each protocol application you are developing. If you do so, you must modify the
make file that builds the loopback test program so that it points to the new location of
the DLI/TSI library. Building the loopback test program is described in Section 2.2.8 on
page 53 for UNIX, Section 2.3.7 on page 71 for VMS, or Section 2.4.8 on page 90 for
Windows NT.
