Destination Node Name of the far-end node for this channel. This must be a
name entered on the Node Names screen.
Destination Port A value of 0 allows any available interface channel on the
destination node to be used for this connection. The Interface
Channel number on the Switch-2 Processor Channel screen
must also be set to 0.
Session - Local The Local and Remote Session numbers can be any value
between 1 and 256 (si model) or 384 (r model), but they must
be consistent between endpoints. For each connection, the
Local Session number on this switch must equal the Remote
Session number on the remote switch and vice versa.
It is allowed, and sometimes convenient, to use the same
number for the Local and Remote Session numbers. It is
allowed, but not recommended, to use the same Session
numbers for two or more connections.
Session - Remote
Mach ID This field is not used for CMS.
Processor Channel 12: (ethernet connection to Switch 2)
Enable Set to y.
Appl. Enter dcs for the DCS connection on Processor Channel 12.
Mode Set the node-5 Mode field to c (“client”) on the Processor
Channel Assignment screen on Switch 2.
Interface Link This must match the link number assigned on the node-1 data
module screen.
Interface Chan For TCP/IP, interface channel numbers are in the range 5000
– 64500.
The recommended values are: 5001 for CMS, 5002 for Intuity
AUDIX, and 5003 for DCS connections that are not
gateways. These three values should be reused for multiple
instances of these applications; for example, if there are two
Intuity AUDIX’s, use 5002 for both; or if there are four
DEFINITY ECS’s, use 5003 for all four. The combination of
Link, Interface Channel, and Mach ID must be unique.
The recommended values for gateway switches is 6001–6099.
The interface channel number must be unique for each
gateway.
Destination Node Name of the far-end node for this channel. This must be a
name entered on the Node Names screen.
Destination Port A value of 0 allows any available interface channel on the
destination node to be used for this connection. The Interface
Channel number on the Switch-2 Processor Channel screen
must also be set to 0.
