UCX NFS (UCP) START — VMS UCX_1.3

Additional information available:

COMMUNICATIONROUTINGSERVICE

COMMUNICATION

  The START COMMUNICATION command is used to initialize the internet
  software.  The only internet commands which can be issued prior to
  the START COMMUNICATION command is the SET and SHOW  COMMUNICATION
  commands.

  Refer to the SET COMMUNICATION command for information on  setting
  communication parameters.

  Any automatic route records defined in the UCX$ROUTE database will
  be deleted.

  Format:
    START COMMUNICATION

ROUTING

  The START ROUTING command is used to initiate dynamic routing.
  The Internet software must be active prior to issuing this command
  (See START COMMUNICATION).

  This command will load the dynamic route database with the routes
  defined in the UCX$ROUTE database.

  It is possible to specify this host as the default gateway for your
  network.  This is done with the /SUPPLY=DEFAULT_ROUTE qualifier.

  Format:
    START ROUTING

Additional information available:

/LOG/SUPPLY

/LOG

  Specifies that information will be logged to the file specified in
  your SYS$MANAGER:UCX$INET_SET_INTERFACES.COM file.

  Format:
    START ROUTING /LOG

/SUPPLY [= DEFAULT_ROUTE]

  Enables the sending of dynamic routing information to the network
  every 30 seconds.  The routing information will be provided via
  broadcast packets.

  The default is that routing information will not be supplied.

  Format:
    START ROUTING /SUPPLY

  It is also possible to specify that this host will advertise the
  default gateway for your network.  This means that when a host on
  another network does not know the route to a host on your network,
  this host will provide the route.

  This is done by specifing DEFAULT_ROUTE as the value to the /SUPPLY
  qualifier.

  NOTE: Only 1 gateway per network can supply the network default route.

  Format:
    START ROUTING /SUPPLY=DEFAULT_ROUTE

SERVICE

  The START SERVICE command is used to  initialize  communication  for
  the specified service.

  This command may only be issued after the internet software has been
  initialized (see START COMMUNICATION).

  The only supported services for UCX V1.2 are: RLOGIN and TELNET.

  The service name is required unless the /ALL qualifier is specified,
  and the service name and /ALL qualifier cannot both be  specified in
  the same command.

  Format:
    START SERVICE [service_name]

Additional information available:

/ALL

/ALL

  Starts all supported services.  The /ALL qualifier and a service name
  cannot both be specified in the same command.

  Format:
    START SERVICE /ALL
