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

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

See
