dkhosts

NOTE: This dash must be included as a place holder or the entire entry will be ignored.

Edit the sample dkhosts ﬁle to reﬂect your own data switch network environ-

ment. Change the host names to reﬂect the proper host names that will be

referenced in a CommKit Host Interface call, and the full dialstrings mapped

accordingly. For each host attached to the data switch node, determine the

service classes.

In general, the hosts that are local to your environment will support all the

above services. The remote hosts that are accessed through dialers will

probably support only remote logins and the call might be made by means of

dkcu. The entries in the dkhosts ﬁle for access to remote hosts often depend

on the hardware connections to those hosts and on the path taken to access

them.

The host ﬁeld corresponds to the host name being referenced. (In the previ-

ous example, a valid host name is hpams5x.) The service classes ﬁeld

matches the service speciﬁed in the incoming host and service classes com-

bination.
