Dave,
I'm new to this stuff- but hope this helps.
Sample IOCP(why stop at 5 devices):
CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=3C01,PATH=(3C),UNIT=OSA
IO1000 IODEVICE ADDRESS=(4000,064),UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=3C01, X
UNIT=OSA
IO1040 IODEVICE ADDRESS=(4040,016),UNITADD=40,CUNUMBR=3C01, X
UNIT=OSA
IO10FE IODEVICE ADDRESS=(40FE,001),UNITADD=FE,CUNUMBR=3C01, X
UNIT=OSAD
Sample commands to define vswitch:
"DEFINE VSWITCH VSWITCH1 RDEV 4000 CON CONTR * PORT MYPORT"
"SET VSWITCH VSWITCH1 GRANT TCPIP VLAN ANY"
Sample statements from TCPIP config:
DEVICE DEV4000 OSD 4000 PORTNAME MYPORT
LINK LNK4000 QDIOETHERNET DEV4000
