Table A-1

describes the fields of the link command that are shown in the /etc/llttab

file examples. Note that some of the fields differ from the command for standard
LLT links.

Table A-1

Field description for link command in /etc/llttab

Description

Field

A unique string that is used as a tag by LLT; for example link1,
link2,....

tag-name

The device path of the UDP protocol; for example udp.

A place holder string. On other unix platforms like Solaris or HP,
this entry points to a device file (for example, /dev/udp). Linux
does not have devices for protocols. So this field is ignored.

device

Nodes using the link. "-" indicates all cluster nodes are to be
configured for this link.

node-range

Type of link; must be "udp" for LLT over UDP.

link-type

Unique UDP port in the range of 49152-65535 for the link.

See

“Selecting UDP ports”

on page 160.

udp-port

"-" is the default, which has a value of 8192. The value may be
increased or decreased depending on the configuration. Use the

lltstat -l

command to display the current value.

MTU

IP address of the link on the local node.

IP address

For clusters with enabled broadcasts, specify the value of the
subnet broadcast address.

"-" is the default for clusters spanning routers.

bcast-address

The set-addr command in the /etc/llttab file

The

set-addr

command in the /etc/llttab file is required when the broadcast

feature of LLT is disabled, such as when LLT must cross IP routers.

See

“Sample configuration: links crossing IP routers”

on page 163.
