File Formatsnca.if(4)


NAME

 nca.if - the NCA configuration file that specifies physical interfaces

SYNOPSIS

 
/etc/nca/nca.if

DESCRIPTION

 

Specify the physical interfaces for which the Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator ("NCA") feature will be configured in the nca.if configuration file. List the physical interfaces in the file, one per line. To configure NCA to listen on all physical interfaces present on the system backed by a hostname.{interface_name}, then list only an asterik ("*") in nca.if.

When the ncakmod(1) initialization script is invoked during system boot, it will attempt to configure each physical interface specified in the nca.if file by using ncaconfd(1M). Note that there must be an accompanying hostname.{interface_name} file and an entry in /etc/hosts for the contents of hostname.{interface_name}.

You must reboot in order to implement changes to the nca.if file.

EXAMPLES

 

IA

 Example 1. nca.if on IA
 

The following is an example of an nca.if file that would be used on an IA system:
 
iprb1
iprb6
iprb8

SPARC

 Example 1. nca.if on SPARC
 

The following is an example of an nca.if file that would be used on a SPARC system:

hme4

All Platforms

 Example 1. Configuring NCA to Listen on All Physical Interfaces
 

The following example shows the contents of an nca.if file that would be used to configure either platform to listen on all physical interfaces present on the system:

FILES

 
/etc/nca/nca.if
Lists the physical interfaces on which NCA will run.
/etc/hostname.{}{0-9}
