Create a Router DSA on Each Host

You have created two data DSAs for each host. You should now create a router DSA on each host.

To create a router DSA on each host

  1. Navigate to the Topology map.
  2. Right-click a host, select Instantiate a new partition to this host, and then select As a Router DSA.
  3. The Instantiate Namespace Partition as a Data DSA page opens.
  4. Select the Router option in the Namespace Partition list.

    The details should be correct.

  5. Click Next, and then review the list of network addresses for this host. If the list is correct, click Finish.
  6. Repeat these steps for the other two hosts.
  7. Save this version of the configuration, as follows:
    1. Click Configuration, Save.
    2. Enter a comment that describes the current state of the configuration, and then click OK.

    You have now created configuration for three router DSAs in this backbone.

    You can now deploy the backbone configuration to the hosts.

The Topology map should now appear similar to the following diagram.
