NAME

     fibreconfig -- Tool for configuring settings for Fibre Channel controllers and targets.

SYNOPSIS

     fibreconfig [-r] [-c xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx] [-a AL_PA] [-s port_speed] [-t topology_type] [-l] [-v]

OPTIONS

     The available options are as follows:

     -r 	 Dynamically updates system settings. Note: Cannot be used in conjunction with -c option.

     -c 	 Defines the host port used for an operation. By default, if no other options are specified, fibreconfig will display information
		 about the specified host port.

     -a 	 Sets the AL_PA for specified host port. The AL_PA must be one of the values defined in Table 1.1 located in the examples section.

     -s 	 Sets speed to [ 1gigabit, 2gigabit, 4gigabit, auto ] for specified host port.

     -t 	 Sets topology to [ nport, nlport, auto ] for specified host port.

     -l 	 Lists all known information about all nodes ( controllers, targets, and their LUNs ).

     -v 	 Display version number.

RETURN VALUES

     Returned Error Code

     0			 No error.

     -50		 Error in user parameter list.

FILES

     /sbin/fibreconfig
	     Executable for version 2.0 and later.

EXAMPLES

     1.   Set the AL_PA to 1E for a given host port.

	  fibreconfig -c 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77 -a 1E

     2.   Disable the AL_PA for a given host port.

	  fibreconfig -c 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77 -a FF

     3.   Set the speed to auto for a given host port.

	  fibreconfig -c 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77 -s auto

     4.   Set the topology to nlport for a given host port.

	  fibreconfig -c 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77 -t nlport

socket_from_name(3ncs)													    socket_from_name(3ncs)

Name
       socket_from_name - convert a name and port number to a socket address

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/socket.h>

       void socket_$from_name(family, name, nlength, port, sockaddr, slength,				status)
       unsigned long family;
       socket_$string_t name;
       unsigned long nlength;
       unsigned long port;
       socket_$addr_t *sockaddr;
       unsigned long *slength;
       status_$t *status;

Arguments
       family The  integer  representation  of	an  address  family.   Value  can be socket_$internet or socket_$unspec If the family parameter is
	      socket_$unspec, then the name parameter is scanned for a prefix of family: (for example, ip:).

       name   A string in the format family:host[port], where family:, host, and [port] are all optional.  The family is an address  family.   The
	      only  valid  family  is  ip.   If  you specify a family as part of the name parameter, you must specify socket_$unspec in the family
	      parameter.  The host is a host name.  A leading number sign (#) can be used to indicate that  the  host  name  is  in  the  standard
	      numeric  form (for example, #192.9.8.7).	If host is omitted, the local host name is used.  The port is a port number.  If you spec-
	      ify a port as part of the name parameter, the port parameter is ignored.

       nlength
	      The length, in bytes, of name.

       port   A port number.  If you specify a port number in the name parameter, this parameter is ignored.

       sockaddr
	      A socket address.

       slength
	      The length, in bytes, of sockaddr.

       status The completion status. If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it was  success-
	      ful.

Description
       The  routine converts a textual address family, host name, and port number to a socket address.	The address family and the port number can
       be either specified as separate parameters or included in the name parameter.
