Administering gateways

7.4.5Obtaining information on a gateway

As an administrator, you can display the status and the definition of local or partner gateways.

Displaying the definition of gateways

Information on the definition of gateways can be obtained with the following command:

xpshow -gtw [selection] [-di display]

If selection is not specified, the command refers to all the gateways in the local Xprint V7.0 system. Otherwise you can either specify a list of the gateways on which you want information to be displayed, or you can use the -scl“selection_criteria_list” option (see section “Selection criteria list” on page 266 in the Appendix) to define a list of criteria according to which the gateways are selected.

With the option -didisplay you can determine the scope of the display as for all the other Xprint V7.0 objects.

Displaying the status of local gateways

You can display the status (active or not active) of a local gateway with the following command:

xpstat -gtw [selection] [-di display]

For selection you have the same options as described under the xpshow command (see above).

Displaying the status of partner gateways

You can display the status of a partner gateway if the corresponding local gateway is in the ACTIVE state with gateway_out enabled. For partner gateways, all the fields are left empty except the State field. Use the following command:

xpstat -gtw [selection] [-di display]

For selection you have the same options as described under the xpshow command (see above). When the identifier list is empty or contains only * then only LOCAL gateways will be looked for. In other cases, both LOCAL and PARTNER gateways will be looked for.
