DTC User Interface Commands 

The following commandsare available at the DTC user interface.  Each
command can be abbreviated.  For example, to establish a connection, you
can enter either C or CONNECT. The commands are not case-sensitive, so
either c or C can be used.

Connect               Connect opens a connection to a system.  The syntax
                      of the command is:

                      C[ONNECT]  NODE NAME | IP ADDRESS | DNS NAME >

                         *   If a default destination has been defined
                             for the port, then entering just C or
                             CONNECT will connect directly to the system.

                         *   You should never pad an IP address with
                             leading zeros.  For example, if the IP
                             address you are trying to connect to is
                             128.10.12.11, you must type connect
                             128.10.12.11.  If you type connect
                             128.010.012.011, the connection attempt will
                             fail.

Disconnect            Disconnect closes the current system connection.

                      D[ISCONNECT]

Help                  Help displays a list of the available commands,
                      their abbreviations, and a brief explanation of
                      what they do.

                      H[ELP]

Logout                Logout logs the user out of the DTC.

                      L[OGOUT]

                         *   If the connection is via modems, the line is
                             dropped.

                         *   If a session is open on a system, it is
                             closed.

Recall                Recall resumes a connection.

                      R[ECALL]

Set ASCII             Set ASCII sets the data transfer mode to ASCII if
                      it has previously been set to binary by a Set
                      Binary command.  For back-to-back connections only.

                      [SET]A[SCII]

Set Binary            Set Binary sets the data transfer mode to binary.
                      For back-to-back connections only.

                      [SET]B[INARY]

Status                Status displays a table showing information about
                      the open connections from the terminal.
