Configuring SNA 9-15
Subscriber Parameters
1 The software does not verify that the specified port exists. Make sure the specified ports
are configured in the database, and that they actually exist.
Subscriber Name
identifies the subscriber to the console operator.
Routing Algorithm
allows creation of a "hunt group" of ports (see example on page 8-22), for the purpose
of routing per a pre-selected algorithm:
0
= Round Robin – selects ports specified cyclicly in numerical order according
to the list of Redirection Addresses. If the selected port is unreachable or con-
gested, the Call Request will be sent to the next port. (If the port becomes
available again, it will be included in its assigned position.)
1
= Alternate Route on Line Failure – selects the first port that is not in a failed
state. If the selected port does not make a connection, the call will be cleared, even
if other ports are available.
2
= Alternate Route on Line Busy – selects the first port that has LCNs available
(is not busy). If the port has failed, the next available port will be selected.
3
= Least LCN with Throughput – selects the line with the minumum loading, cal-
culated by weight and number of LCNs in use on that line. (Each line is assigned
a weight proportional to its throughput within the routing path.)
If use of a routing algorithm is not desired, simply accept the default, and specify only
one routing path.
