Using the Printer with LAT on XNIC-ENET Only
Chapter 6: Using the Printer with LAT on XNIC-ENET Only ❖ 6-3
Configuring
an OpenVMS
LAT Host for
LATSYM
The following is a procedure that the system administrator
may use to set up the printer queue on the host. The actual
commands will vary according to system configuration, type
of printer, and application requirements.
1
At the $ prompt enter the following command:
run sys$system:latcp
2
To set up a VMS application port, at the LATCP> prompt
enter the following sequence of commands:
create port ltannn : /log
set port ltannn : /application -
/node=XNE xxxxxx /service=XNE xxxxxx _1
exit
where ltannn is the port name assigned by the network
administrator.
The qualifier node represents the XNIC-ENETs server
name and the qualifier service represents the LAT
service name. Both can be found in the Ethernet portion
of the Printer Configuration Sheet. The service name is
the one identified under DEC LAT. The server name is
the service name without the _1 at the end.
For example: If the Service name is XNE1076E3_1, the
Server name is XNE1076E3.
If the name was changed, the new name must be used
instead. Be sure you match the case (upper/lower) of
the node name and port name. (To preserve case, use
quotation marks.)
