Client Mode
In client mode, VTCPD connects to a host as a client process. The option -l may be
used to specify the number of connections (links) to the host using a specific TCP/IP
port. The option may be used multiple times. The following syntax is used to specify
that VTCPD should be run in client mode:
vtcpd -l [#:][host]:[port]
Args: # Indicates the number of connections to the specified host. (The
default is 1.)
host Indicates the name or IP address of each host.
port Indicates the TCP/IP port number. (Port numbers 7000-7256 are
reserved for the VMST and must not be used.)
Examples: vtcpd -l 2:eagle:10000 -l eagle:10001
-l hawk:11000
Specifies three connections to the host name eagle (TCP/IP ports 10000
and 10001) and one connection to the host named hawk (port 11000).
vtcpd -l 1::5000
Specifies a link to a yet-to-be-defined host via port 5000.
vtcpd -l 2:eagle:
Specifies two links to the host eagle via a yet-to-be-defined port.
vtcpd -l 3::
Specifies three yet-to-be-defined links.
In client mode, if the host or port arguments are omitted, the links are
unavailable to applications until this information is supplied by an
administrative application. This allows the links to be allocated dynamically.
Ports 7000-7256 are reserved for VMST and must not be used.
Correct sequencing of the connection specifications is important because
applications can refer to connections by numeric designation when
requesting a specific connection. The connections are numbered in the order
specified on the command line. (For example, the numeric designation of the
hawk connection as shown above is 4.)
If the number of connections is not specified, it defaults to one.
