The size of the buffers on the IPSG cards is 3200 KB. The size of the buffers assigned to each association
that is assigned to the IPSG card cannot exceed the maximum buffer size for the IPSG card. When a
new association is added, the default buffer size for the association is assigned to the association. If
adding the new association causes the total buffer size for all the associations on the IPSG card to
exceed the maximum buffer size for that IPSG card, the ent-assoc command will be rejected. If the
you wish to add the association and the maximum buffer size for the IPSG card will be exceeded, the
buffer size of the other associations assigned to the IPSG card must be decreased by performing the
Changing the Buffer Size of an IPSG Association
card can be verified by entering this command.
rtrv-assoc:lhost=<local host name assigned to the association>
The alhost parameter can also be used with the rtrv-assoc command to display the available size
of the buffers on the IPSG card.
The aname parameter can be used with the rtrv-assoc command to display the available size of
the buffers on the IPSG card and the size of the buffer assigned to the association.
The value of the lhost, rhost, or alhost parameters is a text string of up to 60 characters, with the
first character being a letter. The command line on the terminal can contain up to 150 characters. If
the host names are too long to fit on the ent-assoc command line, perform the chg-assoc command
with the parameters and values necessary to complete the entry of the M2PA association.
The EAGLE 5 ISS can contain a maximum of 4000 connections (association to application server
assignments).
A maximum of 32 IPSG M2PA associations can be assigned to an IPSG card.
The B Ethernet interface of the IPSG card can be used.
To activate the association after the association is assigned to a signaling link, the association must
contain values for the lhost, lport, rhost, rport parameters.
Uni-homed endpoints are associations configured with the lhost parameter only. The lhost parameter
value represents an IP address that corresponds to either the A or B network interface of the IPSG
card. Multi-homed endpoints are associations configured with both the lhost and alhost parameters.
The lhost parameter value represents an IP address corresponding to one of the network interfaces
(A or B) of the IP card while the alhost parameter value represents an IP address corresponding to
the other network interface of the same IPSG card.
An alternate remote host can be configured for multi-homed associations using the rhost and
rhosttype parameters of the chg-assoc command. The rhost parameter value with the
rhostype=primary parameter represents an IP address that corresponds to one of the network
interfaces at the remote end while the rhost parameter value with the rhostype=alternate
parameter represents an IP address that corresponds to the other network interface at the remote end.
Canceling the RTRV-ASSOC Command
Because the rtrv-assoc command used in this procedure can output information for a long period
of time, the rtrv-assoc command can be canceled and the output to the terminal stopped. There
are three ways that the rtrv-assoc command can be canceled.
Press the F9 function key on the keyboard at the terminal where the rtrv-assoc command was
entered.
Enter the canc-cmd without the trm parameter at the terminal where the rtrv-assoc command
was entered.
