Configuring DLSw Services

303523-A Rev. 00
You enter slot information in the DLSw Slot IP Table during the initial
configuration procedure. Refer to Chapter 5 for more information about accessing
and editing the DLSw Slot IP Table.
DLSw Peer IP Table
TCP/IP sessions exchange information between devices attached to each router.
Data link switches that connect to the same TCP/IP network are called DLSw
peers. Each DLSw peer is represented by an IP address.
On Bay Networks routers, each slot that you configure with DLSw services
functions as an independent DLSw peer. Other vendors may offer
RFC 1434/1795-compliant products that support either single or multiple DLSw
peers internally. For example, each IBM
6611 processor in your network serves as
a single DLSw peer that you must define on the router.
In each router, you can define a list of peers identifying remote routers with which
a DLSw session can be initiated. These are called configured peers, and are
defined in the DLSw Peer IP Table.
Configured Peers
A configured peer is a remote data link switch, represented by an IP address, that
is predefined in the local router. You define a configured peer by specifying its
unique IP address in the Site Manager DLSw Peer IP Table.
IP addresses in the local router’s Peer IP Table must also appear in the Slot Table
of a remote router.
A configured peer can receive broadcast frames directly from DLSw peers in a
local router.
The local router issues broadcast frames triggered by client demand for
connection services. Responses to these broadcasts enable the local router to:
Identify DLSw peers that can reach the requested remote NetBIOS or SNA
system
Manage (open, restart, and close) TCP connections to the DLSw peer that can
reach the requested SNA or NetBIOS system
