from several routing protocols and selects the best routes based on that
information. These protocols are configured in the file TCPIP$GATED.CONF.
Related commands: START ROUTING /GATED, STOP ROUTING /GATED
Format
SET GATED [ /CHECK_INTERFACES ]
[ /FILE=file ]
[ /SAVE_STATE ]
[ /TOGGLE_TRACE ]
Qualifiers
/CHECK_INTERFACES
Optional.
Instructs GATED to scan the kernel interface list for changes.
/FILE=file
Optional.
Specifies the name of the GATED configuration file. Use with the /SAVE_STATE
qualifier.
/SAVE_STATE
Optional.
Causes GATED to save the current state of all tasks, timers, protocols, and tables
to the file SYS$SYSDEVICE:[TCPIP$GATED]TCPIP$GATED.DMP (default).
Use the /FILE qualifier to specify a file name other than the default.
/TOGGLE_TRACE
Optional.
Use to close the trace file. A subsequent set GATED /TOGGLE_TRACE command
reopens the trace file. This allows the file to be copied regularly. Valid only when
a trace file is specified in the GATED configuration file.
