Configuring the Point Code and CIC Translation STP Option

This procedure is used to configure the STP option for the PCT (Point Code and CIC Translation) feature using the chg-stpopts command with the pct parameter. The pct parameter has three values.

on – The PCT feature is applied to all MSUs.
off – The PCT feature is not applied to any MSUs.
lset – The PCT feature is applied to incoming MSUs or outgoing MSUs on a linkset whose PCT option value is on.

The default value for the pct parameter is off.

The value of the pct parameter is shown in the PCT field of the rtrv-stpopts output. The PCT field of the rtrv-stpopts is shown only if a PCT quantity is enabled.

Display the features that are enabled by entering the rtrv-ctrl-featcommand.

The following is an example of the possible output.

Zero entries found.

The following features have expired temporary keys:

Feature Name              Partnum
Zero entries found.

If a PCT quantity is not enabled, perform the Changing the Point Code and CIC Translation Quantity procedure to enable a PCT quantity. The value of the PCT field in the rtrv-stpopts output is set to the default value off. After the Changing the Point Code and CIC Translation Quantity procedure has been performed, continue the procedure with 3.

If a PCT quantity is enabled, continue the procedure with 2.

Display the existing value for the pct parameter by entering the rtrv-stpopts command. This is an example of the possible output.
