7.4.2 Deleting a gateway connection
A gateway connection that is no longer needed, for example because the
remote partner computer no longer exists, can be deleted. If you only want to
stop the use of a gateway connection temporarily, you can deactivate it
completely or only in one direction (see section “Deactivating a gateway” on
page 230).
A gateway can only be deleted by the Xprint V7.0 administrator. You must
first log in accordingly.
● If you want to delete a partner gateway, you must first check whether the
gateway to be deleted is registered as an allowed gateway at the responsible
local gateway:
xpshow -gtw local_gw -diL
If this is the case, deactivate the local gateway, remove the partner gateway
from the list of allowed gateways and reactivate the local gateway:
xpchange -gtw local_gw -stN
xpmod -gtw
local_gw -ag- gateway
xpchange -gtw local_gw
● To finally delete the gateway, use the following command:
xpdel -gtw gateway
where gateway is the name of the gateway to be deleted. If gateway is a local
gateway, it must be deactivated before deletion.
Bear in mind that a complete gateway connection consists of two
gateways - the local gateway and the partner gateway. If you want to
delete the connection completely, you must delete both gateways. To find
out which gateways are defined, use the xpshow -gtw command (see
section “Obtaining information on a gateway” on page 233).
