INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Note:

If you operate 6611s at releases prior to V1R4, you must retain each
comparable matching level Configuration Program version.

To install the 5 release diskettes in a directory that currently
contains a copy of the Configuration Program, follow the installation
instructions in this README file. When prompted by the installation
program for the directory path of where the program will be installed,
enter the full path of the directory where your current version of the
Configuration Program is kept.

The installation process should not erase any files other than those
files that comprise the Configuration Program. For example, files
which have an extension of "cdb" will not be erased or modified.
(These files contain the configuration definitions created and saved
from within the Configuration Program using the Save or Save As...
functions in the File pull-down menu in the application menu bar.)
You should periodically back up the "cdb" files to ensure that you
always have current backup copies. Loss of the "cdb" files
would result in the loss of the configurations contained in the
files.


INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - New installation:

To install the upgrade set of diskettes in a directory that
currently does not contain a copy of the Configuration Program
follow the installation instructions in this README file.

This file contains additional documentation for the installation and
use of the IBM Multiprotocol Network Program Configuration Program
(referred to as the Configuration Program in this README file).  The
Configuration Program is used to configure an IBM 6611 Network
Processor (sometimes referred to as the 6611 in this README file).
This file should be read in its entirety with the exception of
sections marked optional.  Optional sections are also sometimes
provided in this file for miscellaneous purposes such as problem
resolution.

If you have a new IBM 6611 Network Processor you should read the
initial setup instructions sent with the machine.  Your IBM 6611
Network Processor is initialized with the Multiprotocol Network
Program Version 1 Release 4.0 (MPNP V1R4).  If all of your IBM
6611s were shipped with MPNP V1R4 preloaded on the hard file or if
all of your 6611s are being upgraded to use MPNP V1R4, this is the
correct version of this code.  There are incompatibilities in MPNP V1
configuration files and all prior releases of MPNP.

V1R4 of the Configuration Program is shipped on 5 diskettes.

***** NOTE ***** IMPORTANT ****** NOTE ***** IMPORTANT **********
This file pertains to V1R4 of the Configuration Program.  V1R4
of the Configuration Program will NOT configure any prior release.
Therefore, if you have any prior release levels of IBM 6611 Network
Processors, you MUST retain your prior release Configuration Program.
***** NOTE ***** IMPORTANT ****** NOTE ***** IMPORTANT **********

You should verify that you are using the correct release of the
Configuration Program to configure your IBM 6611 Network Processor.
To verify, check the title bar on the main screen of the Configuration
Program. If the release number is not on the title bar, then you have
V1R1.0 of the Configuration Program.

Each release of the Configuration Program configures a particular
release of the IBM 6611 Network Processor.  Refer to the "History"
section of this file to determine which release of the Configuration
Program to use to configure a given release of the IBM 6611 Network
Processor.

Refer to the IBM Multiprotocol Network Program Configuration Guide,
SC31-6691-03, for instructions on how to install and use the
Configuration Program.

1.  Installation Files

Refer to the IBM Multiprotocol Network Program Configuration Guide
for instructions on how to install the Configuration Program.  When
you install the Configuration Program, several files will be copied
to the installation directory.  IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU HAVE WRITE
PERMISSION TO THE INSTALLATION DIRECTORY TO INSTALL AND USE THE
CONFIGURATION PROGRAM.  THE CONFIGURATION PROGRAM WILL NOT RUN IF
YOU DO NOT HAVE WRITE PERMISSION TO THE INSTALLATION DIRECTORY.  The
Configuration Program writes the program files to the installation
directory during installation.  During program execution, the
Configuration Program writes to the installation directory such
information as the font and colors to use in the program.  The
Configuration Program also writes files to the installation directory
when creating or reading an IML diskette and in the event of an
"Internal execution error".  Additionally, the Configuration Program
can write files ending with the extension "cdb" to the installation
directory when saving a configuration.  These files are in binary
format and should not be changed via a file editor or with an AIX
command.

The following three lists contain the files that are installed in the
installation directory.  The first list is for AIX workstations, the
second list is for workstations running Microsoft Windows, and the
third list is for workstations running OS/2.

2.  Installation on a Microsoft Windows Workstation

The Configuration Program is designed to run under Microsoft
Windows Version 3.0 or later in 386 Enhanced Mode.  The monitor
must have at least a 640x480 resolution with 16 colors or
greyscales.  To install the Configuration Program under Windows:

    1. Start Windows in Enhanced Mode by entering the following
       DOS command:  win /3

    2. After Windows is active, open the Run command dialog
       in Program Manager by selecting the File pulldown menu
       and then selecting Run on that menu.

    3. Insert Configuration Program Diskette 1 into the 3.5-inch
       diskette drive.  On the Run command
       dialog enter: A:\INSTALL.

       Note:  If your diskette drive is not assigned the letter A,
              substitute the letter assigned to your drive
              when you enter the command.

    4. Select Ok to execute the command.

The Configuration Program will install itself on the system and
will prompt you to enter the installation disk drive, directory,
group box name, and any other details necessary to complete the
installation.

WIN32S

 NOTE: The WIN32S diskettes are only needed for running the Configuration
 Program on MS-Windows 3.x workstations. If you have not already installed
 WIN32S, you must do so in order to run the Configuration Program on this
 platform.


     WIN32S Install Instructions:
      1.Stop all Windows applications
      2.In Windows Program Manager, select FILE, then RUN...
      3.Put diskette 6 of 7 in diskette drive A:
      4.In Command Line (of RUN...) enter: A:SETUP and press OK.
      5.Note message to add SHARE.EXE to AUTOEXEC.BAT file (SHARE is
        part of DOS; the AUTOEXEC.BAT file can be modified after this
        install).
      6.At next prompt for the WIN32S Setup diskette, insert 7 of 7.
      7.Expect message "WIN32S files successfully installed".
      8.Optional FREECELL program is on diskette 6 of 7.
      9.SETUP will restart WINDOWS to complete the installation.

3.  Installation on an OS/2 2.1 Workstation

The Configuration Program is designed to run under IBM OS/2
Version 2.1.  The monitor must have at least a 640x480 resolution
with 16 colors or greyscales.  To install the Configuration Program
under OS/2 2.1:

    1. Insert Configuration Program Diskette 1 into the 3.5-inch
       diskette drive.  At an OS/2 command prompt enter the
       command: A:\OS2INST.

       Note:  If your diskette drive is not assigned the letter A,
              substitute the letter assigned to your drive
              when you enter the command.

    2. Press Enter to execute the command.

The Configuration Program will install itself on the system and
will prompt you to enter the installation drive and directory.
An IBM 6611 folder will be created with the Configuration Program
icon inside.

4.  Installation on a RISC System/6000 Running AIX 3.1.5 or Later

The Configuration Program can run under AIX Version 3.1.5 and later
on a RISC System/6000 workstation.  The monitor must have at least a
640x480 resolution with 16 colors or greyscales.  As a part of its
installation and operation, the Configuration Program uses the
dosread, doswrite, dosdir and csh commands.  The Configuration
Program also uses these commands to read and write configurations to
a diskette.  These commands must be installed on the RISC System/6000
workstation before you install and use the Configuration Program.

Because of the way that the Configuration Program interfaces with
AIX Windows, sometimes Configuration Program windows are positioned
relative to the inside, upper-left corner of the window and not the
upper-left corner of the window border.

To correct this problem, add the following four lines to
your .Xdefaults file:

    Cfg6611.normal.mappingOffset: 11,27
    Cfg6611.transient.mappingOffset: 11,27
    Cfg6611.normal.configurationOffset: 0,0
    Cfg6611.transient.configurationOffset: 0,0

To install the Configuration Program on an AIX workstation:

    1. Insert Configuration Program Diskette 1 into the diskette
       drive.

    2. Enter the following commands in the sequence shown:
         dosread -a install.aix install.aix
         chmod 550 install.aix
         install.aix

    3. The last command, install.aix, starts the Configuration
       Program Installation, which will prompt you when to insert
       Diskettes 1 through 5.
