Displays status and configuration information for the transport
entity specified. Syntax | |
NETCONTROL STATUS[=ALL] [;{NI=niName [;PROT=niProt]} ]
{NET=niname }
{GATE=gatehalfname }
{PROT=gProt } |
Parameters | |
- STATUS[=ALL]
Specifies that any additional status information
should be displayed, if additional data is available beyond the
default. - NI=niname
Specifies the name of a configured network interface
to display the status of. Enter any valid NI name from the NMMGR
Network Interface screen which is not a gateway half. If the specified
NI was not previously configured and started, an "ENTITY
NOT ACTIVE" error will occur. If transport was not previously
started, a "TRANSPORT NOT ACTIVE" warning will
occur. Specifying NI=niname without
the ;PROT= option displays status
for the network interface itself. - NET=niName
Specifies the name of a configured network interface
which is not a gatehalf. Enter any valid NI name, as configured
with NMMGR. - GATE=gatehalfname
Specifies the name of a configured gateway half
network interface to display the status of. Enter any valid gatehalf
NI name from the NMMGR Network Interface Configuration screen. If
the specified gatehalf NI was not previously configured and started,
an "ENTITY NOT ACTIVE" error will occur. If transport
was not previously started, a "TRANSPORT NOT ACTIVE"
warning will occur. - PROT=gProt PROT=niProt
Specifies that a protocol is the pertinent entity
for each specified function to act on. Enter the name of the protocol,
as follows: - gprot
Specifies the name of one transport general protocol
to display the status of. Valid inputs are TCP, UDP, PXP, or IPU.
If the specified protocol did not start or is not one of these inputs,
an "ENTITY NOT ACTIVE" error will occur. If transport
was not previously started, a "TRANSPORT NOT ACTIVE"
warning will occur. - niprot
Specifies the name of one network interface protocol
to display the status of; must be used in conjunction with the NI=niname
parameter. Valid inputs depend on the NI type, according to the
table below. If the specified protocol did not start, is not configured,
or is not one of these inputs, an "ENTITY NOT ACTIVE"
error will occur. If transport was not previously started, a "TRANSPORT
NOT ACTIVE" warning will occur. | NI Type: | Valid Network Interface Protocol Names |
|---|
| LAN | IP, PROBE, ARP | | TOKEN | IP, ARP | | FDDI | IP, ARP | | 100VG-AnyLAN | IP, PROBE, ARP | | 100Base-T | IP, PROBE, ARP | | ROUTER | IP, DIAL | | X.25 | IP, X25 | | GATEHALF | IP, DIAL | | LOOP | IP |
Discussion | |
This command displays status and configuration data for the
active transport, using several different output formats depending
on the keywords specified. Some of the formats are specific to the
control process, a network interface, or a specific protocol. Any
entities which are not active cannot have their status displayed. This command differs from other NETCONTROL
commands in that it produces warnings, not errors, if transport
is not active. This is often used to determine if transport as a
whole is running or not. | | | |  | NOTE: HP does not recommend combining this function on the
same command line as other functions, in an attempt to determine
if the other function worked.The output format of all NETCONTROL
commands is subject to change without notice. Programs which are
developed to postprocess NETCONTROL output should
not depend on the exact format (spacing, alignment, number of lines,
upper or lower case, or spelling) of any NETCONTROL
command output. | | | | |
