Change Routes

Use alter route to change the topology, user name, password, and certain configuration parameters of a direct route.

alter route to dest_replication_server{
	set next site [to] thru_replication_server |
	set username [to] 'user' set password [to] 'passwd' |
	set password [to] 'passwd' |
	set route_param [to] 'value' |
	set security_param [to] 'value' |
	set security_services [to] 'default'}

To alter a route, you must:

1. Suspend the route.
2. Execute alter route with the relevant configuration parameters.
3. Resume the route for the changes to take effect.
