Prerequisites
In order to provide the desired functionality, BCAM (automatically) activates the following system options internally, provided this has not already been done by means of the BCOPTION or MODIFY-BCAM-OPTIONS command:
For connections via IP:
ARP=QUIET
BROADCAST=ON
For connections via ISO8473:
ISO9542=ON
Activating AEC
Automatic end system creation must be explicitly activated using the following command:
/BCOPTION AUTOMATIC-ES-CREATE=ON(PROFIL=...,REASON=...,)
With the PROFIL parameter you select the profiles for which extension is to take place.
PROFIL=IP
The configuration extension occurs only for IP protocols.PROFIL=IPV6
The configuration extension occurs only for IPv6 protocols.PROFIL=ISO8473
The configuration extension occurs only for ISO8473/ISO9542 protocols.PROFIL=*ALL
The configuration extension occurs for IP and IPv6 as well as for ISO8473/ISO9542 protocols.
With the REASON parameter you specify the events for which the configuration extension is to occur:
REASON=INCOMING-DATA
The extension occurs in the event of incoming messages from the network (e.g. connection setup by a previously unknown PC).REASON=OUTGOING-DATA
The extension occurs as a result of actions in the local system which require the dispatch of messages to the network, e.g. connection setup by a previously unknown PC).REASON=ROUTING-PROTOCOL
The extension occurs when routing protocol elements from the network (e.g. ISO9542 ISH-PDU) are received from a previously unknown intermediate system.REASON=ROUTING-DATA
The extension occurs as a result of routing data elements that are not sent via an IP broadcast.
This setting requires the entries PROFILE=IP and IP-ROUTING=ON.REASON=INCOMING-BROADCAST
The extension is triggered by incoming IP broadcast data.
This entry is only evaluated for PROFILE=IP and PROFILE=*ALL.REASON=SNMP
The extension occurs on receiving SNMP write accesses (required setting: BCOPTION SNMP-WRITE=ON).
This entry is only evaluated for PROFILE=IP.REASON=*ALL
The extension is required for each of the above reasons.
As soon as DNS is to be used, you must also set the following:
/MODIFY-BCAM-OPTION DNS-OPTIONS=*PARAMETERS(DNS-USAGE=*ON)
All these specifications have a cumulative effect. If a particular subfunction is no longer desired, it must be explicitly deactivated. The configuration is extended as soon as the function is activated, provided a corresponding routing table entry does not already exist. If the function is deactivated with BCOPTION AUTOMATIC-ES-CREATE=OFF, no further entries are made in the routing tables.
If certain routing table entries are no longer accessed, the corresponding system must be shut down explicitly by means of a BCDAC or BCOUT command.
Do not issue the BCOPTION command until all the routers have been entered and all the required server ports released.
