Gateways Interoperability

Requirements

If a gateway to a DPRINT spooler in a BS2000 system is to be configured, the software openFT must be installed on the host for which the local gateway is to be configured. For the openFT root user, OBS, IBR and IBP must be set to the value 100 (see openFT command ftmoda).

Defining the local gateway

If a local gateway to another Xprint V7.0 domain already exists on a host which meets the requirements mentioned above, this gateway can also be used for connections to DPRINT spoolers.

The local gateway is configured in exactly the same way as a gateway to another Xprint V7.0 domain:

xpadd -gtw local_gw -tp LOCAL -ho local_host \ -ga gtw_port -np protocol -pp GIP2 [-aa]

This command configures a local gateway named local_gw which administers the physical connection to the DPRINT spooler. For local_gw any name can be used; it does make sense, however, to use a name which indicates on which host the gateway is configured. With the option -holocal_host you specify the name of the host which is to act as the gateway from the local Xprint V7.0 domain to the DPRINT spooler.

In the case of a TCP/IP connection, the option -gagtw_port specifies which TCP/IP port number is to be used. The default is 9999.

i

The port number is very important as no two gateways with the same port number can run at the same time on a system.

The option -npprotocol defines whether the TCP/IP protocol (TCP) or the ISO (ISO) protocol is used. The ISO protocol is only available for users. For the connection to DPRINT spoolers the print protocol must be selected with the option -pp GIP2. With the -aaoption you can define that the gateway is activated automatically each time Xprint V7.0 is started.

Defining the partner gateway

The partner gateway is defined as follows:

xpadd -gtw dprint_partner -tp PARTNER -ga port -bl local_gw \ -on original_name -oh original_host -op "FT=tns_entry"
