About the SNA Subnet ID and the syncconf File

Introduction

The easiest way to correlate adapter/port combinations with the Subnet ID is to view the /opt/snet/etc/syncconf file.

Example:

# cat /opt/snet/etc/syncconf

wans 0 0 A def def stackA - SDLC

wans 0 1 B WAN84 LC_LAPBDTE stackB 18005551212 X25

wans 0 2 C WAN84 FR_DTE stackC 0 FRAME

wans 0 3 D WAN84 FR_DTE stackD - FRAME

wans 1 0 E def def stackE - SDLC

wans 1 1 F WAN84 FR_DTE stackF 1 FRAME

wans 1 2 G ? ? ? ? ?

wans 1 3 H ? ? ? ? ?

Explanation

In the above example, a four port adapter is located as adapter 0. A two port adapter has been configured as adapter 1. Although the two port adapter is displayed for four ports within the syncconf file, the graphical interface only allows the administrator to configure two of those ports.

The following can be inferred from the previous example:
