AVAILABILITY

     This command is available from  the  Interphase  S/ATM  4615
     software distribution.  For information about installing the
     4615 software distribution, refer to the S/ATM 4615  Instal-
     lation Guide.

DESCRIPTION

     iaparam sets or displays adapter parameters  stored  in  the
     Interphase   S/ATM   4615  adapter  on-board  flash  memory.
     iaparam can also be used to update the adapter's Fcode.  The
     device special file is specified by the device argument.

     The device argument may be expressed in the following forms:
     /dev/iadev#   where   `#'   is  the  ia  controller  number.
     /dev/iadev0 is the default device if no device is specified.

     The on-board adapter flash  memory  contains  the  adapter's
     Fcode  and  some  parameters that may need to be changed for
     each installation.  These parameters are  the  adapters  MAC
     addresses and the SBus interrupt level.

     There are 2 MAC addresses contained in  each  4615  adapter,
     the  current  MAC  address and the factory MAC address.  The
     nodes MAC address is set to the  current  MAC  address  when
     system is powered up. The current MAC address can be changed
     with the -m option.  The factory MAC address is provided  by
     Interphase  and  can  not  be changes by the customers. 4515
     adapters are shipped form the factory with the  current  MAC
     address  set to the factory MAC address.  Option -r restores
     the factory MAC address into the current MAC address.

     4615 adapters are shipped from the  factory  with  the  SBus
     interrupt  level set to 4. If a different interrupt level is
     required, the interrupt level can be  changed  with  the  -i
     option.

     The adapter's Fcode can be updated with the -f option.

OPTIONS

     -d   Display adapter's  factory  MAC  address,  current  MAC
          address  and  the  SBus  interrupt  level stored in the
          flash memory.

     -m   Change the current MAC address to mac_address.  The MAC
          address  is given as six hexadecimal bytes separated by
          colons.

     -i   Set the adapter's  interrupt  level  to  level.   Valid
          values of the interrupt level are 1 to 7, inclusive.

     -r   Restore  the  factory  default  MAC  address  into  the
          current MAC address.

     -f   Update the Fcode from the  file  file  into  the  flash
          memory.

     device
          Device special file.
