/sys$common/syshlp/LATCP$HELP.HLB  —  CREATE  PORT  Qualifiers  /LOGICAL
       /LOGICAL=(NAME=logical-name[,TABLE=table][,MODE=mode])

    Specifies a logical name to be associated with the actual name of
    the created port. You must specify a logical name if you do not
    specify a port name.

                                   NOTE

       If you have sufficient privileges to create a port, but lack
       the privilege to assign a logical name, the port will still
       be created.

    You can specify one of the following options for the TABLE
    keyword:

    GROUP      Places the logical name in the group logical name
               table. You must have GRPNAM or SYSPRV privilege to
               place the logical name in the group logical name table.
    JOB        Places the logical name in the jobwide logical name
               table.
    PROCESS    Places the logical name in the process logical name
               table. This is the default.
    SYSTEM     Places the logical name in the system logical name
               table. You must have SYSNAM or SYSPRV privilege to
               place a name in the system logical name table.

    You can also specify the name of a specific table. For example,
    you could specify LNM$PROCESS, which would be the equivalent of
    specifying PROCESS.

    Options for the MODE keyword are:

    EXECUTIVE   Creates an executive mode logical name. You must have
                SYSNAM privilege to create an executive mode logical
                name.
    SUPERVISOR  Creates a supervisor mode logical name.
    USER        Creates a user mode logical name.

    The access mode associated with the logical name is determined
    by maximizing the access mode of the caller with the access mode
    specified by the MODE keyword: the mode with the lower privilege
    is used.

    You cannot specify an access mode with a privilege higher than
    that of the table containing the logical name. However, if your
    process has SYSNAM privilege, then the specified access mode is
    associated with the logical name regardless of the access mode of
    the caller.

    If you omit the MODE keyword, the access mode of the caller is
    associated with the logical name.

    You can also create the port as a limited port, using the
    /LIMITED qualifier.
