This conversion procedure can be used with NS 3000/V NMCONFIG and NSCONF files for version V-delta 3 or later. The procedures that follow are for updating (migrating) configuration files from a node running NS X.25 3000/V Link to a node that will be running NS 3000/iX release 2.0 or later. As mentioned, this appendix does not apply if an MPE V based node is being used as an X.25 server for NS 3000/XL based machines. When updating a node running NS X.25 3000/V Link, all NS 3000/V LAN, Point-to-Point, or NRJE as well as X.25 information will be updated to work with iX 2.0.

NOTE: If you are migrating a configuration file from any MPE V based node acting as an X.25 server for NS 3000/XL based machines (including the NS X.25 3000/XL Server product) to an NS 3000/iX node that will be running NS 3000/iX release 2.0 or later, see Appendix D “NS X.25 Migration: NS 3000/V and NS 3000/XL Release 1.X to iX Release 2.0 or later” In that case, you would be merging the server's NS 3000/V configuration file with an existing NS 3000/XL 1.X configuration file. Furthermore, only X.25 information would be updated (not, LAN, NRJE, or Point-to-Point). The procedures that follow assume that there is no existing NS 3000/XL NMCONFIG file.

To Delete Secondary NIs (NS/iX Rel. 2.2 or later)

If you are migrating from NS X.25 3000/V (release V delta 7 or later) to NS 3000/iX release 2.2 or later, make a backup copy of your NS 3000/V NSCONF file. To migrate to NS 3000/iX release 2.2 or later, you must delete the secondary NIs in the NS 3000/V NSCONF file before you use NMMGRVER to convert it.
