Connects your terminal (through the current host processor)
to another processor, called the remote processor. The command
requires that:
o You must have an account on the remote system to log in.
o The NETMBX (network mailbox) privilege is set.
For more information about using the following qualifiers, see
help for the appropriate subtopic.
Qualifier Type of Connection
/DTE Connects your system to a remote system through an
outgoing terminal line.
/DUP Connects your terminal to a storage controller
through the appropriate bus for that controller.
/HSC Connects your terminal to an HSC disk and tape
controller through the computer interconnect (CI)
bus.
/LAT Connects your terminal to a specified service
available on the local area network (LAN).
/RLOGIN Allows you to log in to a remote host over a TCP/IP
connection and start an interactive terminal session
by accessing the RLOGIN application.
/TELNET Connects you to a remote host over a TCP/IP
connection by invoking the TELNET application.
/TN3270 Connects you to a remote IBM host over a TCP/IP
connection, causing the local keyboard to emulate
an IBM 3279-class terminal keyboard by invoking the
TN3270 terminal emulator.
Format
SET HOST node-name
1 – Parameter
node-name
Specifies the node name of the remote processor to which you will
connect.
2 – Qualifiers
2.1 /APPLICATION_PROTOCOL
/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL[=protocol]
Specifies the protocol connection, CTERM (CTDRIVER) or RTERM
(RTTDRIVER) on the specified node. CTERM protocol is the default
if no connection is specified.
2.2 /BUFFER_SIZE
/BUFFER_SIZE=n
Changes the packet size of the protocol message sent between the
terminal and the remote processor if a connection to the remote
processor is already established. The default buffer size is 1010
bytes; however, the buffer size n can range from 140 bytes to
1024 bytes. The value of the parameter n is reset to 140 bytes if
a value below 140 is specified; a value for n above 1024 bytes is
reset to 1024.
You can force the host node to write to the terminal in smaller
packets, thereby ensuring that write operations to the terminal
are displayed at more frequent intervals, by setting n to a
value just above the minimum of 140 bytes. On slow DECnet links,
setting the buffer size to a smaller value may decrease pauses
between write operations when large amounts of data are being
scrolled to the screen.
2.3 /LOG
/LOG[=filespec]
/NOLOG (default)
Controls whether a log file of the entire session is kept. If you
use the /LOG qualifier without the file specification, the log
information is stored in the file SETHOST.LOG.
2.4 /MOP
/MOP client-name
Connects your system to a remote system using the MOP protocol.
Note that this qualifier is displayed only if DECnet-Plus is
installed on your system.
For more information, type the following command:
$ HELP DECnet-Plus DCL_Commands SET HOST/MOP
2.5 /RESTORE
/RESTORE
/NORESTORE (default)
Saves current terminal characteristics before a remote terminal
session is begun and restores them when the remote session is
terminated.
3 – Examples
1.$ SET HOST/APPLICATION_PROTOCOL=CTERM DAKOTA
The /APPLICATION_PROTOCOL qualifier specifies the CTERM
protocol (the default) on node DAKOTA in this command line.
2.$ SET HOST ITALIC
Username: GRESO
Password: <PASSWORD>
Welcome to OpenVMS VAX Version 7.3 on node ITALIC
.
.
.
$ LOGOUT
GRESO logged out at 19-DEC-2001 15:04:25.27
%REM-S-END, Control returned to node _CASLON::
In this example, the name of the local node is CASLON. This SET
HOST command connects the user terminal to the processor at the
network node named ITALIC. The remote processor then prompts
for user name and password. Use the normal login procedure to
log in to the remote processor.
Once you are logged in at a remote node, you can use the SET
HOST command to establish communication with another node.
After logging in to node ITALIC, you could type SET HOST
BODONI.
You would again be prompted for a user name and password. If
you then supply a valid user name and password, you will be
logged in to node BODONI.
Note that when you log out of node BODONI, control is returned
to node ITALIC. You must log out of node ITALIC to return to
your local node, CASLON.
3.$ SET TERMINAL/WIDTH=80
$ SET HOST/RESTORE GENEVA
Username: Jones
Password: <PASSWORD>
$ SET TERMINAL/WIDTH=132
.
.
.
$ logout
JONES logged out at 19-DEC-2001 11:04:51.45
%REM-S-END, control returned to node _ORACLE
This example shows user JONES on node ORACLE logging in to
remote node GENEVA and specifies that the original terminal
screen width be restored to 80 characters when the remote
session is terminated.
4 /DTE
Connects your system to a remote system through an outgoing
terminal line.
You must have an account on the remote system in order to log in
to that system after the connection is made.
You must also have the ability to assign a channel to the
terminal port specified. Your system manager can set the device
protection on the terminal port to allow you access.
Format
SET HOST/DTE terminal-name
4.1 – Parameter
terminal-name
Specifies the name of an outgoing terminal line, which connects
your system directly to another system or modem.
4.2 – Qualifiers
4.2.1 /BREAK
/BREAK=break-character
Selects the break character. The break character is used to
generate a break on lines that expect a break rather than a
carriage return. To generate a break, press Ctrl/break-character.
The break character can be any ASCII character between @ and
z, except C, M, Q, S, Y, or the left bracket ([). You cannot
select a character currently defined as either the command
character (see the description of the /COMMAND=command-character
qualifier) or the escape character (see the description of the
/ESCAPE=escape-character qualifier).
The ASCII characters between @ and z include the alphabetic
characters in both upper and lower cases, the at sign (@), the
backslash (\), the right bracket (]), the circumflex (^), the
underscore (_), and the grave accent (`).
By default, the break character is the right bracket (]).
4.2.2 /COMMAND
/COMMAND=command-character
Selects the command character. Use the command character to
access DTE command mode by pressing Ctrl/command-character.
The command character can be any ASCII character between @ and z,
except C, M, Q, S, Y, or the left bracket ([). You cannot select
a character currently defined as either the break character (see
the description of the /BREAK=break-character qualifier) or the
escape character (see the description of the /ESCAPE=escape-
character qualifier).
The ASCII characters between @ and z include the alphabetic
characters in both upper and lower cases, the at sign (@), the
backslash (\), the right bracket (]), the circumflex (^), the
underscore (_), and the grave accent (`).
By default, the command character is the at sign (@).
4.2.3 /DIAL
/DIAL=(NUMBER:number[,MODEM_TYPE:modem-type])
Allows a modem attached to the outgoing terminal line to be
autodialed using the autodial protocol of that modem. The
NUMBER keyword is the telephone number to be autodialed and is
a required parameter.
Before you dial a new number, you must log out of the current
remote system.
On Alpha, the MODEM_TYPE keyword defaults to DMCL (any modem that
uses the DEC Modem Command Language).
Each modem type requires a specific modem dialer code. Check with
your system manager to see which modem dialer codes are installed
on your system.
In addition, the MODEM_TYPE keyword can be used to specify
a modem type other than DF03, DF112, or DMCL. A template is
provided for users interested in supporting other modems with
autodial capabilities (see SYS$EXAMPLES:DTE_DF03.MAR).
4.2.4 /ECHO
/ECHO
/NOECHO (default)
Determines whether the terminal input is echoed by your local
system. By default, all echoing is performed by the remote
system.
4.2.5 /EIGHT_BIT
/EIGHT_BIT (default)
/NOEIGHT_BIT
Determines whether the outgoing terminal line supports 8-bit or
7-bit characters. By default, 8-bit characters are supported. If
you specify /NOEIGHT_BIT, then 7-bit characters are supported.
4.2.6 /ERROR_ACTION
/ERROR_ACTION=CONTINUE (default)
/ERROR_ACTION=EXIT
Specifies the error action by using the EXIT or the CONTINUE
keyword.
When an error is detected on the outgoing terminal line, the
error is reported to the local system and an error message is
displayed on your terminal.
If the error action is CONTINUE, then communication with the
remote system continues uninterrupted.
If the error action is EXIT, then the local system immediately
exits from the remote system.
4.2.7 /ESCAPE
/ESCAPE=escape-character
Selects the escape character. You can use the escape character to
exit from DTEPAD by pressing Ctrl/ escape-character.
The escape character can be any ASCII character between @ and z,
except C, M, Q, S, Y, or the left bracket ([). You cannot select
a character currently defined as either the break character (see
the description of the /BREAK=break-character qualifier) or the
command character (see the description of the /COMMAND=command-
character qualifier).
By default, the escape character is a backslash (\).
The ASCII characters between @ and z include the alphabetic
characters in both upper and lower cases, the at sign (@), the
backslash (\), the right bracket (]), the circumflex (^), the
underscore (_), and the grave accent (`).
4.2.8 /FLOW_CONTROL
/FLOW_CONTROL (default)
/NOFLOW_CONTROL
Determines whether XON/XOFF flow control is enabled. By default,
flow control is enabled.
XON/XOFF flow control is a means of preventing data-overrun
errors. Incoming data is stored in receive buffers; when these
buffers are full, a signal is sent to the remote system to stop
transmission. Once there is sufficient space in the receive
buffers, another message is sent to restart transmission.
You should disable XON/XOFF flow control when the remote system
has no XON/XOFF flow control.
4.2.9 /INIT
/INIT[=filespec] (default)
/NOINIT
Sets the configurable characteristics of DTEPAD according to
values contained in the specified initialization file.
If you use qualifiers in the command line to define the values of
any of the configurable characteristics, these will supersede the
values contained in the initialization file.
By default, DTEPAD tries to translate the logical name DTEPAD$INI
in order to find the appropriate initialization file. If you
use the /INIT qualifier and omit the file specification, DTEPAD
translates the logical name DTEPAD$INI and finds the appropriate
file. If DTEPAD$INI is not defined, then DTEPAD uses /NOINIT as
the default.
An initialization file can contain any combination of any of the
following DTE commands:
o SAVE
o SEND BREAK
o SET DTE
o SPAWN
The following is an example of an initialization file:
SET DTE/MAX_BUFFERS=150
SET DTE/READ_DELAY=100
SEND BREAK
4.2.10 /LOG
/LOG[=filespec]
/NOLOG (default)
Controls whether a log file of the session is kept.
If you use the /LOG qualifier and omit the file specification,
then the log information is written to the file DTEPAD.LOG.
When used to log a modem session, the log file contains any noise
that occurred on the phone line. For example, typing a file in
order to get it recorded in the log file could result in noise
being recorded along with the file data. Therefore, the use of a
log file is not recommended for the purpose of file transfers.
HP recommends that you use asynchronous DECnet to transfer files.
4.2.11 /MAX_BUFFERS
/MAX_BUFFERS=number-buffers
Specifies the maximum number of receive buffers. Receive buffers
are buffers used to receive incoming data from the modem port.
They are allocated as they are required.
By default, the maximum number of receive buffers is 100. The
minimum number you can specify is 20.
4.2.12 /PARITY
/PARITY=NONE (default)
/PARITY=ODD
/PARITY=EVEN
Selects parity on the outgoing terminal line.
4.2.13 /READ_DELAY
/READ_DELAY=delay
Specifies the modem port read delay in milliseconds. The modem
port read delay is the time interval during which data in the
modem port is transferred into receive buffers at the terminal.
By default, the modem port read delay is 50 milliseconds. This is
also the minimum value.
A long modem port read delay slows the rate at which data is
displayed at your terminal, and also increases the risk of data-
overrun errors; however, a longer read delay requires less CPU
overhead.
4.2.14 /SPEED
/SPEED=(output-rate,input-rate)
Sets the baud rate at which the terminal receives and transmits
data. If the input and output rates are the same, specify the
qualifier as /SPEED=rate.
Not all terminals support different input and output baud rates.
For specific information on baud rates for your terminal, consult
the manual for that terminal.
The default transmission rates are installation dependent.
The valid baud rates are as follows:
50 150 1800 4800 38400
75 300 2000 7200 57600
110 600 2400 9600 76800
134 1200 3600 19200 115200
If you select an invalid or unsupported speed, then the terminal
line speed will remain set at its previous value.
4.3 – Examples
1.$ SET HOST/DTE TTA2:/DIAL=NUMBER:5551234
Username: SMITH
Password:
This command connects the user terminal to the outgoing
terminal line TTA2:, which is attached to a modem (type DF03
by default) set to autodial the phone number 555-1234. The
remote processor then prompts for user name and password. Use
the normal login procedure to log in to the remote system.
2.$ SET HOST/DTE/DIAL=(NUMBER:5551234#,MODEM_TYPE:DF112) TTA2:
Username: SMITH
Password:
This command accomplishes the same thing as in the first
example, except that it uses the DF112 modem. The number sign
(#) is required to activate the autodialer in the DF112.
3.$ SET HOST/DTE/NOEIGHTBIT TTA2
This command sets the outgoing terminal port, TTA2, to support
7-bit characters.
4.$ SET HOST/DTE/NOFLOW_CONTROL TTA2
This command disables the XON/XOFF flow control.
5.$ SET HOST/DTE/ERROR_ACTION=EXIT TTA2
This command sets the error action to EXIT.
6.$ SET HOST/DTE/MAX_BUFFERS=150 TTA2
This command sets the maximum number of receive buffers to 150.
7.$ SET HOST/DTE/ESCAPE=E TTA2
This command defines the letter E as the escape character. Note
that DTEPAD is not case sensitive.
8.$ SET HOST/DTE/LOG TTA2
This command enables logging of the session. Since no log
file is specified, the log is written to the default log file,
DTEPAD.LOG.
9.$ SET HOST/DTE/INIT=MYFILE.INI TTA2
This command uses the initialization file MYFILE.INI.
10$ <Ctrl/@>
DTEPAD>

%HSCPAD-I-LOCPROGEXE, Local program executing -
type ^\ to exit utility
The SET HOST/DUP command in this example connects the user
terminal to the utility program called DIRECT executing on a
storage controller named R2DH5Y under direction of the MSCP$DUP
server.
6 /HSC
Connects your terminal to an HSC disk and tape controller through
the computer interconnect (CI) bus.
Used only with HSC controllers. Requires the DIAGNOSE privilege.
Format
SET HOST/HSC node-name
6.1 – Parameter
node-name
Specifies the node name of the HSC.
6.2 – Qualifier
6.2.1 /LOG
/LOG[=filespec]
/NOLOG (default)
Controls whether a log file of the entire session is kept. If you
use the /LOG qualifier without the file specification, the log
information is stored in the file HSCPAD.LOG.
6.3 – Example
$ SET HOST/HSC HSC001
%HSCPAD-I-LOCPROGEXE, Local program executing -
type ^\ to exit, ^Y for prompt
HSC>
This SET HOST/HSC command connects the user terminal to the HSC
named HSC001.
7 /LAT
Connects your terminal to a specified service available on
the local area network (LAN), establishing one session for
communication between your terminal and that service.
The service node that provides the service must be on the same
extended LAN and must be running at least Version 5.0 of the LAT
protocol.
Format
SET HOST/LAT service-name
7.1 – Parameter
service-name
Specifies the name of the service to which you want your terminal
connected. A service is a resource on the LAN. A service often
consists of all of the resources of a computer system. Other
examples of services are a file storage system and an application
program running on a computer system. A computer system that
offers one or more services is called a service node.
If several service nodes offer the same service, and you do not
specify the /NODE=node-name qualifier, your terminal connects to
the service node that is the least busy.
To display a list of services on your LAN, use the LAT Control
Program (LATCP) SHOW SERVICES command. See the HP OpenVMS System
Management Utilities Reference Manual.
7.2 – Qualifiers
7.2.1 /AUTOCONNECT
/AUTOCONNECT
/NOAUTOCONNECT
Specifies whether connection attempts should be retried
automatically when a connection fails because a service is
unknown or unavailable, or because a node is unknown or
unreachable. Also specifies that reconnects should be attempted
automatically if a service has disconnected abnormally. The
default is /NOAUTOCONNECT.
7.2.2 /AUTOPROMPT
/AUTOPROMPT (default)
/NOAUTOPROMPT
Causes an OpenVMS Username: prompt to appear with no user action
when a SET HOST/LAT command is issued.
On a terminal server port, you can configure the port to have
AUTOPROMPT disabled (/NOAUTOPROMPT) so that you are required
to press Return when connecting to a node to get the Username:
prompt; however, when connecting to a reverse LAT service, the
AUTOPROMPT characteristic should be disabled.
7.2.3 /BREAK
/BREAK=break-character
Defines a character that generates a break on lines that expect a
break rather than a carriage return. To generate a break, press
the Ctrl and break-character keys together. The default break-
character value is the tilde (~).
You can select any ASCII character between @ and Z, except C, M,
Q, S, Y, and the left bracket ([). You cannot select a character
that is already defined as the disconnect character.
7.2.4 /DESTINATION_PORT
/DESTINATION_PORT=port-name
Specifies the port on a node to which you want to connect. The
/NODE qualifier is required when you specify the /DESTINATION_
PORT qualifier. The port must be available and must offer the
service you specify. OpenVMS and certain other LAT service node
systems ignore the /DESTINATION_PORT qualifier.
7.2.5 /DIAL
/DIAL=(NUMBER:number[,MODEM_TYPE:modem-type])
Allows a modem attached to the outgoing terminal line to be
autodialed using the autodial protocol of that modem. The
NUMBER keyword is the telephone number to be autodialed and is
a required parameter.
The MODEM_TYPE keyword is optional. It can be used to specify any
of the following modem types:
o DMCL (any modem that uses the DEC Modem Command Language)
o DF03 (default)
o DF112
Each modem type requires a specific modem dialer code. Check with
your system manager to see which modem dialer codes are installed
on your system.
In addition, the MODEM_TYPE keyword can be used to specify
a modem type other than DF03, DF112, or DMCL. A template is
provided for users interested in supporting other modems with
autodial capabilities (see SYS$EXAMPLES:DTE_DF03.MAR).
7.2.6 /DISCONNECT
/DISCONNECT=disconnect-character
Defines the character that you can use to disconnect from a
remote session. To generate a disconnect, press the Ctrl and
disconnect-character keys together. The default disconnect-
character is the backslash (\).
You can select any ASCII character from @ through Z, except C, M,
Q, S, Y, and the left bracket ([). For example, if you specify
/DISCONNECT=A, Ctrl/A will be the disconnect character. You
cannot select a character that is already defined as the break
character.
7.2.7 /EIGHT_BIT
/EIGHT_BIT (default)
/NOEIGHT_BIT
Determines whether the outgoing terminal line supports 8-bit or
7-bit characters. By default, 8-bit characters are supported. If
you specify /NOEIGHT_BIT, then 7-bit characters are supported.
NOTE
To change the number of bits per character on the remote
terminal server port, that port must have the REMOTE
MODIFICATION characteristic enabled.
7.2.8 /FRAME
/FRAME=n
The /FRAME=n qualifier allows a user making a LAT connection
to a remote system to specify the number of data bits that
the terminal driver expects for every character that is input
or output. The value of n can be from 5 to 8. The default
value depends on the settings for the terminal established by
the /PARITY and /EIGHT_BIT qualifiers. The following example
specifies a character frame size of 7 bits per character:
$ SET HOST/LAT /FRAME=7 DIAL_OUT_SVC
7.2.9 /LOG
/LOG[=log-file]
Logs all data that is delivered during the LAT session. If you do
not specify a log file, the data is stored in the file SETHOST_
LAT.LOG.
7.2.10 /NODE
/NODE=node-name
Specifies the node that offers the service to which you want to
connect. Failover is not performed if the connection fails.
7.2.11 /PASSWORD
/PASSWORD=password
Specifies the password required by a service that is password
protected. If you do not specify the /PASSWORD qualifier when
requesting a connection to a password-protected service, you are
prompted for a password.
7.2.12 /QUEUE
/QUEUE
/NOQUEUE (default)
When connecting to a reverse LAT service that is already in use
(such as a dial out modem), you are notified that the service
is in use and the SET HOST/LAT command terminates. However, LAT
can allow incoming connections to be queued to any reverse LAT
service that supports service queueing, which enables users to be
placed on a queue when using reverse LAT services.
LAT reports your position in the queue. When the resource becomes
available, you are immediately notified. You can cancel the
queued connection by pressing Ctrl/Y and terminating the SET
HOST /LAT command.
7.2.13 /SPEED
/SPEED=(output-rate,input-rate)
Sets the baud rate at which the terminal receives and transmits
data. If the input and output rates are the same, specify the
qualifier as /SPEED=rate.
Not all terminals support different input and output baud rates.
For specific information on baud rates for your terminal, consult
the manual for that terminal.
The default transmission rates are installation dependent.
The valid values for input and output baud rates are as follows:
300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600
If you select an invalid or unsupported speed, the terminal line
speed will remain set at its previous value.
NOTE
To change the speed on the terminal server port, the REMOTE
MODIFICATION characteristic must be enabled on that terminal
server port.
When initiating a connection, SET HOST/LAT may attempt
to set terminal server port characteristics, such as the
speed and the default speed for a LAT device. If the device
connected to the terminal server port has a fixed speed
(such as a dial-out modem) and you do not want the host
to try to change this, disable the REMOTE MODIFICATION
characteristic on that port using the following command:
Local> DEFINE PORT x REMOTE MODIFICATION DISABLE
Local> LOGOUT PORT x
Use the following command for terminal servers that support
the CHANGE command:
Local> CHANGE PORT x REMOTE MODIFICATION DISABLE
7.3 – Examples
1.$ SET HOST/LAT SORTER
%LAT-S-CONNECTED, session to SORTER established
%LAT-I-TODISCON, type ^\ to disconnect the session
Username: BARKER
Password:
.
.
.
$ LOGOUT
BARKER logged out at 30-DEC-2001 11:04:51.45
%LAT-I-DISCONNECTED, session disconnected from SORTER
-LAT-I-END, control returned to node HOME
$
This SET HOST/LAT command connects the user to the service
SORTER, which is a computer system. The first message confirms
that the user has been connected to that service. The second
message informs the user how to disconnect the session. (The
user can also disconnect the session by logging out from
SORTER.) SORTER then prompts for the username and password.
Use the normal login procedure to log in to the system. When
the user logs out of the service SORTER, the terminal displays
the DCL command prompt of the user's local processor system
(HOME).
2.$ SET HOST/LAT/DESTINATION_PORT=BOSTON-
_$ /NODE=STATE/DISCONNECT=F BUDGET
This command connects the user's terminal to the service BUDGET
that is offered on port BOSTON, on service node STATE. The user
can disconnect the session by pressing Ctrl/F.
3.$ SET HOST/LAT PURSE
Password:
This command attempts to connect the user's terminal to the
service PURSE. The service PURSE is password protected, so the
user is prompted for a password. The user could have specified
the password within the SET HOST/LAT command, as shown in the
next example.
4.$ SET HOST/LAT/PASSWORD=BEOR PURSE
This command connects the user's terminal to the password-
protected service PURSE. The password is BEOR.
8 /RLOGIN
Allows you to log in to a remote host over a TCP/IP connection
and start an interactive terminal session by accessing the RLOGIN
application.
Format
{ IPhostname }
SET HOST/RLOGIN { IPaddress }
{ }
NOTE
You can specify the IPhostname or the IPaddress, but not
both.
8.1 – Parameter
IPhostname
Specifies the IP host name of the remote host.
IPaddress
Specifies an IP address of the remote host.
8.2 – Qualifiers
8.2.1 /AUTHENTICATE
Specifies that Kerberos authentication should be used for
acquiring access to the remote node.
8.2.2 /TERMINAL_TYPE
/TERMINAL_TYPE=type
Sets the terminal emulator to one of the following terminal
types: VT100, VT200, VT300, VT400, VT500.
8.2.3 /TRUNCATE_USERNAME
Specifies that the current user name should be truncated to 8
characters before attempting to connect to the remote node. The
qualifier is required for communication with systems that limit
the size of their login names to 8 characters. The /TRUNCATE_
USERNAME qualifier is ignored if /USERNAME is specified.
8.2.4 /USERNAME
/USERNAME=username
Specifies the user name for logging in to the remote node. The
user name can be enclosed in quotes to preserve the case of the
user name for case sensitive systems such as UNIX systems. If the
/USERNAME qualifier is not specified, the default is the current
user's user name.
8.3 – Example
$ SET HOST/RLOGIN remotehst1
This example creates an RLOGIN connection to remote host
remotehst1 over a TCP/IP connection.
9 /TELNET
Connects you to a remote host over a TCP/IP connection by
invoking the TELNET application.
Format
{ IPhostname }
