# Blank lines and lines beginning with '#' are ignored.

# Legend:

# first field -- hostname

# hd -- home directory

# bf -- bootfile

# cs -- cookie servers

# ds -- domain name servers

# gw -- gateways

# ha -- hardware address

# ht -- hardware type

# im -- impress servers

# ip -- host IP address

# lg -- log servers

# lp -- LPR servers

Configuring the ATM Address

The ATM switch router ships with a preconfigured ATM address. The Integrated Local Management

Interface (ILMI) protocol uses the first 13 bytes of this address as the switch prefix that it registers with

end systems. Autoconfiguration also allows the ATM switch router to establish itself as a node in a

single-level Private Network-Network Interface (PNNI) routing domain.

Note If you chose to manually change any ATM address, it is important to maintain the

uniqueness of the address across large networks. Refer to the Guide to ATM Technology

for PNNI address considerations and for information on obtaining registered ATM

addresses.

For a description of the autoconfigured ATM address and considerations when assigning a new address,

refer to the Guide to ATM Technology.
