Datafill sequence and implications
The following tables must be datafilled before table LIUINV:
• PMLOADS
• LIMINV
• CARRMTC
• SUSHELF
• LIMPTINV (LIM-based LIU)
• MSCDINV (MS-based LIU)
You must datafill the EIU in table LIUINV before datafilling it in table
IPHOST.
Table LIUINV datafill
Table 11 lists the fields and value ranges used to datafill an EIU in table
LIUINV.
While table 11 provides all the information you need to datafill for EIUs,
complete information on table LIUINV is in DMS-100 Translations Guide,
297-xxxx-350.
CAUTION
Possible loss of service
Table LIUINV requires that you datafill a unique media
access control (MAC) address for each EIU. Obtain these
MAC addresses from Nortel. Using an arbitrary address for
an EIU may result in loss of connectivity with the Ethernet
network.
