VMS Help  —  SET  DISPLAY  Qualifiers  /TRANSPORT
       /TRANSPORT=transport-name

    Defines the transport mechanism, for example, DECnet or
    local, that passes information between the application and the
    workstation. The transport mechanism is used to send input from
    the user to the application and output from the application to
    the display device. In proxy manager configurations, the value
    specified for this qualifier also acts as a default value for the
    /PMTRANSPORT qualifier.

    The transport-name parameter can be one of the following values:

    o  TCPIP or DECNET

       Specifies the appropriate network transport for applications
       running and displaying on different nodes. You can specify
       the default transport value used with the SET DISPLAY/CREATE
       command by defining the DECW$SETDISPLAY_DEFAULT_TRANSPORT
       logical in the job, process, or system table. The value
       of this logical is then used each time you enter the SET
       DISPLAY/CREATE command without the /TRANSPORT qualifier. If
       you specify neither the qualifier nor the logical, the value
       of DECNET is used as default.

    o  LOCAL

       Optimizes the performance of applications running and
       displaying on the same node.

    On Alpha and Integrity server systems, the valid set of values
    for the transport-name parameter is further determined by the
    DECwindows logical DECW$IPV6_SUPPORT. This logical specifies
    which Internet Protocol version is supported: IPv4 or IPv6. See
    the DECwindows Motif documentation for more information about the
    DECW$IPV6_SUPPORT logical and support for the IPv6 protocol.

    When using a proxy manager on Alpha and Integrity server systems,
    this qualifier specifies the transport that the selected LBX
    proxy server should use to connect to the X server.

    When using a standalone proxy server (specified by the /SERVER
    qualifier), this qualifier specifies the transport that the
    client should use to connect to the proxy server.
