To modify a common ASL script:

  1. Go to the BASEDIR/smarts/bin directory in the Network Protocol Manager installation area and use the sm_edit utility to open the ASL script. For example:

                   sm_edit rules/bgp/custom/custom-end-system.asl
                
  2. Add your ASL code to the script.

  3. Save and close the script.

    The modified version of the ASL script is saved to the BASEDIR/smarts/local/rules/bgp/custom directory.

  4. If Network Protocol Manager for BGP was running before you edited the ASL script, restart Network Protocol Manager for BGP.

    Included in a Network Protocol Manager software distribution is an example of a modified custom-end-system.asl file. That file is located in the following directory:

    BASEDIR/smarts/examples/dynamic-model/example2/rules/discovery/custom
