The FDDI Link Configuration screen (#203) in Figure 3-8 "FDDI Link Configuration Screen" is displayed when you select a link name of type FDDI at the Link Selection screen (Figure 3-2 "Link Selection Screen") and press the [Add] or [Modify] function key. It is also displayed when you type the path name:

@LINK.linkname

in the command window of any screen and press the [Enter] key, where linkname is the name of a configured FDDI link.

Fields

Physical path of device adapter

The physical path number corresponds to the slot location of a node's FDDI device adapter. For HP e3000 systems, the path is derived by a basic formula of 4 x slot number. (Example: 4 x 10 = 40, where the FDDI device adapter is installed in slot number 10 and the physical path of the device adapter is 40.)

If you are unsure of the slot location or of the physical path number to configure for your system, see your system documentation or consult your Hewlett-Packard service representative.

Use factory-configured local station address?

The FDDI adapter is supplied with a 48-bit station address. These are guaranteed to be unique. Do not override the factory configured local node address except on the specific instructions of your network administrator or your Hewlett-Packard representative.

Default value: Y

Local station address

This field is to be used only with specific instructions from your network administrator or your Hewlett-Packard representative. It allows you to enter a station address to replace the factory configured address. The format must be compatible with HP software requirements.
