Using the Router ASCII Interface V3.5

A modified version of API version 3, referred to as V3.5 now exists. It combines features of API
V3 (automatic back channel connections) and the optimization of API V4. The API commands
are described in the document: Router-ASCII-API-V3.5.pdf.

API V3.5 is only available on the Vx40, Vx160 and Vx320 routers. The files names are:
vx40api.v35

,

vx160api.v35

,

vx320api.v35

If you need to switch API versions, log in to the vxRouter and run these commands: (use the
correct API file name for your router)

From V4 to V3.5

cd /usr/local/sbin
rm vxrapi
ln -s vx40api.v35 vxrapi
kill -hup 1

From V3.5 to V4

cd /usr/local/sbin
rm vxrapi
ln -s vx40api vxrapi
kill -hup 1
