Network Services (NET_SERVICE) Statements
NET_PROTOCOL { TCP/IP | SPX/IPX }
specifies TCP/IP or SPX/IPX as the network protocol to use for this service. 
NET_NAME net-name
identifies the network service; net-name is a string up to 16 characters in length 
that must match the name of the service in your system SERVICES file.
IOP_NAME iop-name
is an alphabetic string up to 15 characters in length that identifies a valid network 
process in the following format: 
[\node.]$process-name
You set the default for this parameter when you install the NonStop ODBC Server. 
Each network protocol uses a different default name for a network process; the 
value you specify depends on your protocol and whether your node uses the 
default name. 
SERVICES_FILENAME services-filename
is a fully qualified file name in Guardian format that specifies the location of the 
system SERVICES file. If you omit services-filename and a default value is 
not defined in ZNSSCFG, the current default for your system is used.
The following attributes configure socket operations for TCP/IP and SPX/IPX networks. 
These attributes correspond to socket options in setsocketopt and 
setsocketopt_nw syntax. The setsocketopt and setsocketopt_nw socket 
library routines are part of the NonStop TCP/IP and SPX/IPX products. 
SO_KEEPALIVE { 0 | 1 } 
specifies whether to keep a socket connection alive when not in use: 
SO_OOBINLINE { 0 | 1 }
specifies whether TCP/IP keeps out-of-band data with normal data: 
If you keep out-of-band data with normal data, the application must discard normal 
data until the out-of-band data is read. 
Caution. You can enter names for the NET_PROTCOL and NET_NAME names using 
lowercase letters because NOSUTIL upshifts each name. However, if you edit the system 
SERVICES file directly, you must enter each name using uppercase letters.
0 Do not keep a socket connection alive when not in use.
1 Keep a socket connection alive when not in use. (This is the default 
value.)
0 Keep out-of-band data separate from normal data.
1 Keep out-of-band data with normal data
