atalk.nei
This file contains configuration information used when AppleTalk Routing is enabled. This file also
contains information regarding ports and static routes. Information from this file is configured and
used only when the AppleTalk routing is enabled.
platform.nei
This is a text file that contains a list of platform names and the currently selected platform. Each line
in the file contains an ASCII string representing a platform name and a corresponding integer
value. The integer value is the crucial item, since this is what the system software uses to determine
whether any special action is necessary. The string is displayed when the
ver
command is issued.
sdconf.rec
This is not a system file; it is a configuration file delivered on the ACE Server. However, you may
TFTP this file to the system’s
\config
directory as an alternate method of providing the system
with ACE Server configuration information.

While the CyberSWITCH is running, it collects system statistics and logs system messages. The
system maintains these statistics and messages in separate memory-resident tables. The ten most
recent versions of each table are available on the system disk.
You can retrieve and view the current memory-resident tables at any time by using the following
console commands:
dr
This command will display system messages.
da
This command will display authentication messages.
ds
This command will display system statistics.
You can write the tables to disk by using the following commands:
wr
This command will write the current system messages to disk.
wa
This command will write the current system messages to disk.
ws
This command will write the current system statistics to disk.
Note:
When the system is shut down, the tables are automatically written to disk.
The system stores the tables in ASCII format files on the System disk. When the system writes
system messages to disk, it stores them in the following location:
Directory:
\log
File Name:
rprt_log.nn
Where “nn” is an integer that is incremented each time a new file is written.
When the system writes system statistics to disk, it stores them in the following locations:
Directory:
\log
File Name:
stat_log.nn
Where “nn” is an integer that is incremented each time a new file is written.
