Displaying and Setting VME Backplane Networking
Configuration
On the VME menu, BPNconfig is used to display or set the VME backplane
networking parameters stored in non-volatile memory.
To display the current VME backplane networking parameters enter the fol-
lowing at the VME menu prompt:
VME Menu: Enter command > bpn
The information is displayed similar to the following example:
Current BPN Configuration Parameters:
CPU Number: 0
Anchor: 0x00200000
AM: 0x3d
Use the following syntax to set the VME backplane networking parameters:
BPNconfig - Show backplane networking configuration
BPNconfig cpu - Set CPU number only
BPNconfig cpu anchor - Set CPU number and VME anchor address
BPNconfig cpu anchor am - Set CPU number, VME anchor address
and VME address modifier code
For example,
bpnconfig 1 0x200000 0x3d
sets the backplane networking resources for CPU number 1, with the VME
anchor address set to 0x200000 and the VME address modifier code is set to
0x3d.
