IBM 9077 SP Switch Router: Get Connected to the SP Switch
Configuration:
In this scenario, we have the SP Switch of SP21 connected to an GRF 1600.
The GRF 1600 has its HIPPI media card’s ports cross-connected to the GRF
400 HIPPI media card’s ports. That means that on both sides DESTINATION
is cabled to SOURCE. The GRF 400 in turn is attached to the SP Switch of
SP2, as shown in Figure 71 and Table 26. The netmask for all interfaces is
255.255.255.0.
Figure 71. SP Switch - HIPPI - SP Switch Connection
Table 26 shows the IP addresses used in our configuration.
Table 26. Configuration of SP Switch - HIPPI - SP Switch
To successfully run this configuration, a route to the distant SP Switch
network has to be set on every SP Switch Router. On the nodes of SP2 and
SP21, respectively, routes to the nodes of the distant SP have to be set.
