Running NBXCOM

NBXCOM is the system operator interface to NBX. NBXCOM provides for

configuration, status, and maintenance requests. You can store your NBXCOM

commands in an EDIT format disk file or enter them conversationally. You can direct

your output to a terminal, printer, disk file, or spooler. Standard OBEY and FC

commands are provided. A built-in HELP command is used; you can easily change the

HELP dictionary or extend it to conform to local requirements by modifying the

supplied NBXCHELP EDIT file.

The Host Name and Window Name fields in the PCT.INI file and the Outside View

Setup menu need to reference the node \NBXNODE.

To start NBXCOM, use the standard TACL RUN command, as shown in the following

example:
