The optional Assistant System argument specifies a MOP client
entity, from which an assistant address can be obtained.
This argument is meaningful for LAN circuits only. The
assistant address is the LAN address of the node to be used as
the loopback assistant.
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 system client-name [,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 system client-name [,optional arguments...]
Examples:
loop mop client lamchp - ! Lamchp gives Address and Circuit
assistant system prkchp, - ! Client prkchp has Assistant Address
assistance type full
loop mop client foofoo - ! Client foofoo gives default Circuit
address 08-00-2b-44-33-5F, -
assistant system barbar, - ! Barbar gives Assistant Address
assistance type full
