Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to build a file that would issue multiple V NET,INACT and V NET,ACT commands that would be executed by NetMaster from say the Operator interface?

Environment

Release : 12.2

Resolution

You can use NCL to accomplish your request.

I created a short NCL to ACT two non-existing lus.

When you make changes to the proc you need to UNLOAD the proc out of storage.

unload proc=aaavtam
