Performing a Dynamic Reconfiguration 

When you use the DTCCNTRL command to perform a dynamic 
reconfiguration, you specify the RC function.  You also specify a RECONF
option of ALL, X25, CARD, PASS, or LOGCL. If you do not specify a RECONF
option, the default of ALL is assumed.

The process of dynamic reconfiguration involves two steps:

   1.  Run NMMGR to modify configuration values.  (See Table 7-1  for
       a list of the configuration parametersthat can be modified through
       dynamic reconfiguration.)

   2.  Enter the DTCCNTRL command using the RC function.

          a.  Use the RECONF=X25 option to download only X.25 values that
              affect the operation of a specific DTC/X.25 Network Access
              Card.

          b.  Use the RECONF=CARD option to download X.25 and PAD values
              that affect the operation of a specific DTC/X.25 Network
              Access Card.

          c.  Use the RECONF=ALL option to download both values that
              affect the operation of specific cards and values that
              affect the global operation of a DTC.

          d.  Use the RECONF=PASS option to download a new PAD access
              password to a DTC. (Make sure that you also modify the
              password for any other DTCs with DTC/X.25 Network access
              cards configured to allow PAD support.)

          e.  Use the RECONF=LOGCL option to download a modified logging
              class configuration.
