Viewing the CMD Server Statistics

Supporting the Network Address Translator

You can use the statistics option to view the current status of the CMD server
or Migration Agent. Enter the following command to view the information on
the CMD information screen:
Scmd /stat
If you want the information to be sent to a file, enter the following command:
Scmd /stat [/Dump]
The information will be written in the CMDSTAT.DAT file in the SYS:\ETC\
directory.
You can use the /search option to list the names of the services the CMD server
or the Migration Agent have located. You can also search for the net number
of the CMD server or Migration Agent. Enter the following command:
Scmd /search [NAME=service name] [NET=net number] [/Dump]
The parameter service name can take one of the following values:
The wildcard *, which will locate all the services in the network
The exact name of the service, for example BLR-ENGR3
The name followed by an asterisk (*), for example BLR*
For the parameter net number you can enter FFFFFFF to list all the services
in the network, or you can enter the matching net number.
Network Address Translation (NAT) provides a transparent routing solution
using the hosts in a private network that can access an external network and
vice versa. IP address translation is required when a network's internal address
cannot be used outside the network either for reasons of privacy or because the
IP addresses are invalid for use outside the network. Since CMD packets have
IP addresses inside their payload, IP address translation cannot work over
NAT without this feature.
The following diagram is an example on how NAT support can be
implemented. The CMD network spreads across the intranet (which uses the
private addressing scheme) and Internet (which uses the public addressing
scheme). A network with NAT enabled at its border is called a private realm.
The network may or may not use private IP addresses. The Internet is called a
