The optional Assistant Address argument specifies the LAN address
of the node to be used as a loopback assistant. This argument is
meaningful for LAN circuits only.
The involvement of the assistant depends on the Assistance Type
parameter. For assistance of type none (the default), no assistant
is needed, and is ignored if specified. For other values, an
assistant is required.
An assistant can be specified either by including an Assistant
Address or Assistant System argument in the command line, but not
both. If neither is provided, then an assistant is located by
first sending a request to the loopback assistant multicast
address.
loop [node node-id] mop client client-name -
assistance type transmit-receive-or-full, -
assistant address lan-address [,optional arguments...]
Address and Circuit information loop is required for the loop mop
client command. If the Client cannot provide default Address and
Circuit information, then that information must be specified in
the command.
loop [node node-id] mop client client-name -
address lan-address, -
circuit circuit-name, -
assistance type transmit-receive-or-full, -
assistant address lan-address [,optional arguments...]
Examples:
loop mop client lamchp - ! Client gives Address and Circuit
assistant address aa-00-04-00-33-44, -
assistance type transmit
loop mop client foofoo - ! Client gives default loop Address
circuit fddi-1, -
