Configuring Your System
module on a Digital AlphaStation 255 system running either the Digital UNIX or
OpenVMS operating system.
Two methods are available to perform ISA configuration tasks: a forms-based interface
(ICONFIG) and a command line interface (ISACFG).

ICONFIG Utility

The ICONFIG utility is a subset of the ISACFG utility. Only one type of each field (or
option) can be set (for example, one IRQ or one I/O address) in ICONFIG. Future
versions will include more functionality.
Start ICONFIG at the SRM prompt by typing >>>iconfig[Return]. The following
screen is displayed:

KEY HELP: Arrows/TAB to move, RET once to submit entry,
RET 2nd time to exit
To add an ISA option, first enter the device's name, then move to the next field and enter
its I/O address, and so forth. For example, to add a DE205 Ethernet controller to the
database, follow these steps in response to the HELP: prompts at the bottom of the
display:
