Describes the userlevel services provided by NSARPA/1000. The NS services are network file transfer (NFT), network interprocess communication (NetIPC), and remote program management (RPM). The ARPA services are TELNET and FTP. Because these are interactive and programmatic services, this manual is intended for interactive users as well as programmers. It should also be read by Network Managers before designing an NSARPA/1000 network so that they will have a clear understanding of the full implications of various NSARPA/1000 functions and features.
91790&90030 NS&ARPA/1000 Generation and Initialization Manual
Describes the tasks required to install, generate, and initialize NSARPA/1000. This manual is intended for the Network Manager. Before reading this manual, the Network Manager should read the NSARPA/1000 User/Programmer Reference Manual to gain an understanding of the NSARPA/1000 userlevel services. The Network Manager should also be familiar with the RTEA Operating System and system generation procedure.
91790&90031 NS&ARPA/1000 Maintenance and Principles of Operation Manual
Describes the NSARPA/1000 network maintenance utilities, troubleshooting techniques, and the internal operation of NSARPA/1000.

91790&90040 NS&ARPA/1000 Quick Reference Guide
Lists and briefly describes the interactive and programmatic services described in the
NSARPA/1000 User/Programmer Reference Manual and the NSARPA/1000 DS/1000IV Compatible Services Reference Manual.

The NSARPA/1000 Quick Reference Guide also contains abbreviated syntax for certain programs and utilities described in the NSARPA/1000 Generation and Initialization Manual and the NSARPA/1000 Maintenance and Principles of Operation Manual. For your convenience, the NSARPA/1000 Quick Reference Guide also contains a master index of NSARPA/1000 manuals.
