You could also assign an identification message for server displays, using
the DEFINE SERVICE IDENTIFICATION characteristic. A user at a
VMS host can connect to a LAT application port that maps to the LAT
local service, as described in the next section.
5. Define TCP/IP dial-out services.
To set up a TCP/IP dial-out service, you assign a Telnet remote port
number to the ports that offer that service. For example, if two ports on the
server offer the TCP/IP dial-out service (for example, a bank of dial-out
modems), you would assign the same Telnet remote port number at both
ports. Users (for example, at PCs or UNIX hosts) then connect to that
service by connecting to the Internet address of the server and specify the
Telnet remote port number assigned to the ports. To assign a Telnet remote
port number, use a command similar to this:
TS3395>> define port 10 telnet remote port 3600
TCP/IP services can also be created by assigning an internet-address or
domain-name to one or more ports (e.g., creating an Internet "rotary").
Use the DEFINE SERVER INTERNET ROTARY command. For
example:
TS3395>> define server internet rotary 112.132.11.1 5-8
A user at a PC whose serial port is connected to a server port can then
connect to the dial-out service while running Kermit or a similar program.
A user at a host that uses Internet Protocols, such as a UNIX host, would
connect to the server internet-address/telnet-remote-port or domain-name/
telnet-remote-port while running Kermit, FTP and so on.
To support dial-out ports, the only action that you need to take at the VMS host
is to create a LAT application port using the LAT control program (LATCP).
The basic steps are as follows:
1. Start the LAT Control Program using the following command:
$ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP
LATCP displays the LCP> prompt.
2. Create a LAT application port using the following command:
LCP>CREATE PORT LTAnnn:
where LTAnnn: represents a device, and nnn is a decimal number. You can
also use the /NOLOG qualifier.
