After you complete the X.25 driver configuration using the NIASCFG utility, load the X.25 driver and the AIOPAD NetWare Loadable ModuleTM (NLMTM) file.
The X.25 driver communicates between the X.25 adapter and the server. AIOPAD.NLM is the AIO driver that provides X.25 support for remote access.
To load the X.25 driver and the AIOPAD NLM, complete the following steps:
At the NetWare console prompt, enter
initialize system
For each X.25 port in the server, load AIOPAD. To load AIOPAD, enter
load aiopad x25board= interface name [prompt=string] [/pass]
| Command Variable | Description |
|---|---|
interface name |
This is the interface name that you specified for the X.25 driver in NIASCFG. See Interface Name in Step 3: Configure the Network Interface. |
prompt |
The optional prompt parameter allows you to specify a string that specifies a prompt that is displayed to NASITM users when they acquire a port using AIOPAD. The prompt can be up to 16 characters. |
/pass |
The optional pass parameter disables AIOPAD from performing X.3 processing in data transfer mode. It prevents the user from going into command mode and changing the X.3 PAD parameters. However, using the option enables PPPRNS to operate more efficiently. |
AIOPAD initializes each port for which it is loaded. Note, however, that remote access can limit the number of active connections.
HINT: Once you have performed your initial configuration of remote access for X.25 support, you might want to modify the AUTOEXEC.NCF file. To edit the AUTOEXEC.NCF file, at the NetWare console prompt, load the NetWare INSTALL utility and select System Options. Then select Edit AUTOEXEC.NCF File
