The site analyst defines these options in the network
configuration file. The STATUS command requests the
status of a single NPU, trunk, or logical link. For
status purposes, the system treats the couplers as
trunks. The comand
STATUS,TRUNK=name
where name is the coupler, returns the status of that
coupler.
The system responds to a STATUS command in one of
the following formats.
NPU:
name,status,node
TRUNK: name,status,node/port,remote/port
LLINK: name,status,RL=n,host/term
The parameters are as follows:
host
Host node number.
name
Name of element.
node
Element node number.
port
Port number.
RL=n
Regulation level currently in effect.
remote Remote node number.
status
Status of element:
term
DI (disabled).
EN (enabled).
AC (active).
DN (down).
Terminal node number.
The site analyst defines the host, name, node, part,
remote, and term options in the network configuration
file. The pptions for the regulation level (n) are in the
Communications Control Program Version 3 Reference
Manual.
STA
TUS,NPU~
or
STATUS, TRUNKS,NPU=name
or
STATUS,LLINKS
Requests status of all NPUs, trunks, or logical links.
For status purposes, the system treats the couplers as
trunks. The command
STA TUS, TR
UNK~
returns the status of
all
trunks and couplers.
If
you
include the NPU=name parameter in the second form
of the command, the system returns the status of
all
trunks connected to the specified NPU.
Response to a STATUS command consists of a single
status line for each element referenced. The previous
command description shows the response format.
LOCAL OPERATOR COMMANDS
The local operator is reponsible for control of network
applications
and
communications elements
(lines
and
terminals).
DISABLE,LINE=name t
or
DISABLE, TERM=name tt
or
DISABLE,APPL=name
Disables the line, terminal, or application having the
specified name. If the line associated with a terminal
is down, the terminal cannot be disabled until the line
becomes active. If the line, terminal, or application is
active when you enter the DISABLE command, the
system terminates data being transmi tted and notifies
affected application programs.
If the operator disables all terminals on a line, that
line is automatically disconnected (dial-up line) or
disabled . (hardwired line) after a. certain period of
time.tttThe line will not be disconnected or disabled if
the operator enables a terminal on the line before the
time period expires.
NAM rejects the second form of the command during
I
NAM initialization.
The
third form
controls an
application's
access
to
the
network
during
initialization and any time the application is not
executing.
tIf entered by the system console operator during NAM initialization, this command temporarily updates the LCF and is
used only if the NPU supporting the element must be reloaded.
ttThis command can be entered from the system console when .the LOP is at a terminal and the specified name is that of
the LOP and/or Nap terminal. The LOP and/or Nap function(s) are returned to the host console from a terminal to
allow you to disable a terminal that becomes inoperable.
.
tttThe time period is set by installation option.
