Displays and assigns services to protocol ports for the Network Terminal Accelerator (NTX).
ntx_pserv [ -c ] [ -d Device ] [ -f File | [ Service Port1 [ -Port2 ] Protocol ] ]
ntx_pserv -r [ -d Device ] Service
The ntx_pserv command displays assigned services and assigns services to a protocol ports. Once a protocol port is assigned a service, you cannot assign it to a different service without clearing all entries for the service with the -r flag or clearing the entire database with the -c flag. You can assign a port to services:
The nop (no-operation) service is a transparent terminal service that provides no special processing.
You can assign a service to a single port a range of ports. To specify a single port, use the Port1 parameter. To specify a range of ports, use the Port1 and Port2 parameters, separated by a - (minus sign). You can set the Protocol parameter to tcp or udp.
You can change a service assignment at any time. However, some changes do not take immediate effect. The telnet, rlogin, and nop services affect the next connection request a port receives. The snmp and snmp-trap services have an affect only before the adapter has been enabled with the ntx_ifcfg command.
By default, the ntx_pserv command displays the current service assignments for the adapter identified by the /dev/rhp0 file.
