CONFIGURING
MPEI~
This
appendix
briefly
describes
how
to
configure
the
MPE
Operating
System
to
include
the HP 30020A Intelligent Network
Processor (INP).
CONFIGURATION OVERVIEW
The programs and intrinsics that comprise
your
data
communica-
tions
subsystems
(such as DS/3000, RJE/3000, etc.) are supplied
as part of your MPE Operating System.
Only the MPE I/O configur-
ation needs to be modified to
include
the
Intelligent
Network
Processor
(INP) and the subsystem pseudo device for each line to
a remote system.
Before configuring MPE,
install the INP as described
in
Section
II, Installation.
The DRT number configured on the INP peA board
(determined from the device number establisheo in step a of para-
graph 2-4, "peA Jumpers and Sw itches") should be noted because it
is requested during the configuration dialogue.
If the I/O configuration is compatible, the same INP can be
used
for
both
DS/3000 and RJE/3000 remote activities.
Same informa-
tion provided in the MPE configuration dialogue may
be
relevant
only
when
the INP is used with one subsystem or the other.
Any
configuration differences or special considerations are noted
in
the following dialogue.
Besides configuring the devices
just
described,
you
must,
of
course,
configure any terminals and line printers that are to be
used for the Pass-Through Mode of operation.
These are
standard
MPE I/O configurations as descr ibed in the System Manager /System
Supervisor Reference Manual.
