Configuring the SP Switch Router Adapter
Configuration required on the SP system
Sources of configuration information
Here are several ways to determine the node number and other configuration data for a
particular card.
• Check the SP Switch out.top file:
– The value of the switch_node_number follows the "tb3" field in file output. In the
example below, the switch_node_number is 31:
s 27 3 tb3 31 0 E02-S17-BH-J15 to E03-N47 # Dependent Node
– The value of the node_number can be found by entering:
SDRGetObjects DependentNode switch_node_number==n
where n is the switch_node_number.
This produces output that looks like:
node_number switch_node_number ...
47 31 ...
• If the node is already defined to the SP system, but you do not know other configuration
information, this command returns configuration information about the dependent nodes
associated with SP Switch Router Adapters in your SP system. From the SP control
workstation, enter:
SDRGetObjects DependentNode
• The system administrator may have labeled the switch cable connecting to the media card
with the node number.
• If there is no terminal directly-attached to the SP Switch Router, check the router host
name from the SP control workstation. From the control workstation, enter:
SDRGetObjects DependentNode node_number reliable_hostname
This command returns host names and their corresponding node numbers for the attached
SP Switch Routers.
Several dependent nodes will be associated with the same reliable host name for SP
Switch Routers that have more than one SP Switch Router Adapter card.
