Administering gateways Interoperability
To configure additional connections to other gateways, proceed as follows:
● First check whether there is a local gateway to which you can add the new
connection:
xpshow -gtw -scl "-tp LOCAL -np protocol -pp gateway_type"
This command returns a list of all the local gateways of the type gateway_type
using the network protocol protocol.
● Then define the new partner gateway with the xpadd -gtw command, as
described earlier in this section for the individual gateway types (see section
“Gateways” on page 213).
● If you want to allow the partner gateway to print on printers of the local Xprint
V7.0 domain via the local gateway, deactivate the local gateway:
xpchange -gtw gateway -st NOT_ACTIVE
You only need to deactivate the local gateway if you want to modify the list
of allowed gateways. This is not necessary if you have defined the local
gateway with -ag ALL or if the you do not want to make the new gateway an
allowed gateway (define it only for sending requests), e.g.:
xpmod -gtw gateway -ag+ partner_gateway
● Then reactivate the local gateway with the following command:
xpchange -gtw gateway
Example
To set up an additional connection from the local gateway nashua to the lpd
spooler of the BSD-UNIX system picasso:
xpshow -gtw -scl "-tp LOCAL -np TCP -pp BSD"
only returns the gateway GTW_nashua
xpadd -gtw GTW_picasso -tp PARTNER -ho picasso -ga 515 \
-bl GTW_nashua -np TCP -pp BSD
xpchange -gtw GTW_nashua -st NOT_ACTIVE
xpmod -gtw GTW_nashua -ag+ GTW_picasso
xpchange -gtw GTW_nashua
