The /etc/llttab file must specify the system's ID number (or its node name), and the network links that correspond to the system. In addition, the file can contain other directives. Refer also to the sample llttab file in /opt/VRTSllt.

Use vi or another editor to create the file /etc/llttab that contains the entries that resemble:

    set-node north
    set-cluster 2
    link lan1 /dev/lan1 - ether - -
    link lan2 /dev/lan2 - ether - -

set-node node name
set-cluster cluster_id
link eth1 eth1-MAC_address - ether - -
link eth2 eth2-MAC_address - ether - -

set-node node name
set-cluster cluster_ID
link e1000g1 /dev/e1000g:1 - ether - -
link e1000g2 /dev/e1000g:2 - ether - -

The first line must identify the system where the file exists. In the example, the value for set-node can be: north, 0, or the file name /etc/nodename. The file needs to contain the name of the system (north in this example) to use these choices. The next two lines, beginning with the link command, identify the two private network cards that the LLT protocol uses. The order of directives must be the same as in the sample file/opt/VRTSllt/sample-llttab.
