Connecting and Logging On to an HP 3000

Remote Host

After you have established a session to your local system, which

supports the Telnet protocol and TCP/IP, run the Telnet client on that

system. Use the client to establish a Telnet connection to the HP 3000

running MPE/iX version 5.5 or later.

The same commands are used to connect to any remote host supporting

the Telnet protocol.

For information on connecting and logging on to a remote host, refer to

Chapter 3, “Using the Telnet/iX Client.”

Logging On

Once the connection has been established, you will be prompted with

the HP 3000 system prompt. At the system prompt, issue the MPE

:HELLO command.

For example, from an HP 9000:

:telnet node3000

Trying...

Connected to node3000.cup.hp.com.

Escape character is “^]”.

MPE XL: hello manager.sys
