Configuration
Freeway system configuration information is contained in a boot configuration file and
a server transport subsystem interface (TSI) configuration file. Default versions of these
files are shipped with your Freeway software and are sufficient for most sites. If you need
to customize the system information in these files, follow the procedures described in
this chapter.
The boot configuration file (
freeway/boot/bootcfg.xxx, explained further in Section3.2)
defines the following:
• Physical devices within the Freeway server, such as the ICPs. Freeway uses this
information to configure devices during the boot process.
• Virtual devices within the Freeway server, such as the ICP_IPs. Freeway uses this
information to define the characteristics of IP data streams.
• Services (such as the FMP or X.25 services) that run on the physical or virtual
devices. Freeway uses this information to download the appropriate software to
these devices during the boot process.
• Server-wide parameters to be used by the Freeway system service provider to con-
figure Freeway at startup.
The server TSI configuration file (
freeway/boot/muxcfg) defines the parameters that
allow the server TSI software to communicate with the client TSI software. It is
explained further in Section 3.3 and Section3.4.
