The Remote Policies screen for an Entry Channel Hub type allows the SCPC data rates and switch types to be specified for when a Remote will switch and the desired starting point for communications.

Entering the Remote number at the command prompt in figure 3-21allows the SCPC Data Rate and the Switch Type for that Remote to be set, as shown in figure 3-22.Switch type 0 corresponds to Load Switching; switch types 64 through 255 are user-defined, and must match VMS policies.

The Global SCPC Rate command can be used to set the data rate for all or a majority of the Remotes. This allows the rate to be entered just once instead of entering the rate for each remote individually. Enter G at the command prompt.
