Configuring Systems for Terminals, Printers, and Other Serial Devices (32022-90051)

Chapter 2 31

Before Conﬁguring Terminal and Printer Connections

2 Before Conﬁguring Terminal and

Printer Connections

This chapter contains information that is needed before conﬁguration of

systems for asynchronous device (terminal and printer) connections can

begin. It also provides worksheets for you to collect your network

conﬁguration data before actual conﬁguration.

Chapter 5, “Conﬁguring Serial Devices (for Host-Based Management),”

and Chapter 6, “Conﬁguring Serial Devices (for PC-Based

Management),” show step-by-step process for conﬁguring terminals,

printers, and other serial devices.

NOTE

If you are conﬁguring X.25 networking capabilities on a HP 3000

Series 900 computer using host-based network management, use

Conﬁguring and Managing Host-Based X.25 Links instead of this

manual to conﬁgure DTCs and DTC connections.

NOTE

You can automatically add and conﬁgure a new host-based managed

DTC to the HP 3000 system without needing to specify detailed

conﬁguration information such as DTC cards/boards and ldevs. For

more information refer to Chapter 3, “Automatic Conﬁguration of

DTCs.”
