Interoperability Gateways
In this case only the value ALL needs to be specified with the -ag option.
Therefore, the + character is not specified after the -ag option in the example
above.
Please note that when the option -ag ALL is used, any partner gateway
added is automatically given the permission to contact the local gateway.
Activating the gateway connection
To be able to print via the gateways, the corresponding local gateway must be
activated. Activation with the xpchange command can be effected on several
levels: you can allow only the export of print jobs via the assigned partner
gateways, only the import from these gateways, or both. The following
command allows both the import and export of print jobs:
xpchange -gtw local_gw
If only the import of print jobs is to be allowed, you can use the -gi ON option;
to only allow the export, use the -go ON option.
Example
To configure a gateway connection from the local host nashua to the lpd spooler
of the BSD-UNIX system picasso:
xpadd -gtw GTW_nashua -tp LOCAL -ga 515 -ho hudson -np TCP \
-pp BSD -aa
xpadd -gtw GTW_picasso -tp PARTNER -ho picasso -ga 515 \
-bl GTW_nashua -np TCP -pp BSD
xpmod -gtw GTW_nashua -ag+ GTW_picasso
xpchange -gtw GTW_nashua
7.3.4 Gateways to other Xprint V7.0 domains
Xprint V7.0 also allows you to establish gateway connections between
independent Xprint V7.0 domains. This makes it possible to distribute the
administration tasks in fairly large networks, for example at department level by
assigning each department its own Xprint V7.0 domain with an Xprint V7.0
administrator of its own.
A connection between the individual domains can then be established via
gateways.
The following figure shows the basic structure of such a gateway connection
and the possibilities it offers:
