Overview
LATCP allows you to control the LAT software on a VMS node and
to obtain information from it. For example, you can use LATCP
to create services on the local VMS node, to associate a port on
the local VMS node with a service or device on a remote terminal
server, and to display information about services offered on the
local node or on other nodes in the network.
When you use LATCP commands to change LAT characteristics (such
as creating a service and associating a port with a service),
the changes take effect immediately. However, when the LAT port
driver stops, these characteristics are lost. If you want these
characteristics to be present the next time you start the LAT port
driver, edit LAT$SYSTARTUP.COM by modifying or adding commands to
set these characteristics. Then, invoke LAT$STARTUP.COM to start
the LAT port driver.
Format
RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP
To invoke LATCP, enter RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP at the DCL command
prompt. At the LATCP> prompt, you can enter any of the LATCP
commands. These commands follow the standard rules of command line
syntax as specified in the VMS DCL Concepts Manual.
To exit from LATCP, enter the EXIT command at the LATCP> prompt or
press Ctrl/Z.
