3.1 Determine If You Need to Customize System Configuration
Most sites, especially sites using the default installation and only one protocol, only
need to edit the
bootcfg.xxx file to specify the protocol for each ICP. You might, however,
decide to further customize the files for any of the following reasons:
• If you installed more than one protocol (for example, FMP and X.25), you must
edit the boot configuration file (
freeway/boot/bootcfg.xxx
1
) to indicate which ICP
will be downloaded with which protocol. See Section 3.2.
• If you want to specify error message logging or message tracing, you might want
to modify the server TSI configuration file (
freeway/boot/muxcfg
2
). Be very careful
if you modify parameters in the server TSI configuration file that control server
resources, such as the TSI buffer pool size or message size, because improper val-
ues could adversely affect server operation. See Section 3.3 and Section 3.4.
• If you want to use more than one local area network interface (for example, dual
Ethernet or both Ethernet and FDDI), you must edit the boot configuration file
(
freeway/boot/bootcfg.xxx
1
) to indicate which added interface type is to be used, the
Internet protocol (IP) address to assign to that interface, and the subnet mask to
set for the interface. See Section 3.2.
• If you want to establish a gateway to a destination network or specify a default
gateway, you can do this in the boot configuration file (
freeway/boot/ bootcfg.xxx
1
).
See Section 3.2.
1. Freeway 1100 uses bootcfg.isa (ICP2424) or bootcfg.pci (ICP2432). Freeway 1150/1200/1300 uses
bootcfg.pci. Freeway 2000/4000/8800 uses bootcfg.vme. Any Freeway using ICP_IP virtual ICP devices may
use
bootcfg.ip.
2. The example server-resident application uses
muxcfg.sra. The Military/Government protocol uses
milmuxcfg.
