Configuring remote connections
The illustration below shows a remote connection configuration. The front-end DTC
is connected to the same LAN as the HP 3000 system. The remote DTC is
connected to the HP 3000 system across a routed network. Communications
between the remote DTC and the HP 3000 system are made via the network and the
front-end DTC. This type of connection is known as a “routable AFCP” connection.
Logon access occurs when a DTC terminal user initiates a connection with an
HP 3000 system. Programmatic access occurs when the HP 3000 system initiates a
connection with a remote DTC. In both cases, addresses are resolved using the
Domain Name Server.
