Object Types and Object Names
Object Names
When you configure the X25AM I/O process or when you add subdevices, you specify
names that you use later in management commands. The names you assign must
conform to the following conventions.
•
PROCESS Object Names
When you assign a name to a PROCESS object, you must make sure it conforms to
the conventions for process names. The recommended form for X25AM is
$identifier, where identifier consists of a letter followed by zero to six
alphanumeric characters with no embedded blanks, for example, $X25P1. The process
name is defined with the SCF ADD DEVICE command to the WAN subsystem.
•
LINE Object Names
LINE object names refer to data communications lines connected through a modem to
an X.25 network. The LINE object name is the same as that of the PROCESS object
name, for example, $X25P1.
•
SU Subdevice Object Names
SU object names refer to X25AM subdevices associated with a line. An SU object
name consists of the LINE object name plus an SU object qualifier. A typical SU object
name might be $X25P1.#TERM7.
Wild-Card Support
The wild-card characters are the asterisk (*) and the question mark (?). * denotes any
number of characters;? denotes any single character. When you use wild-card
notation, the first character of the name must be an alphabetic character, an asterisk,
or a question mark. The second, and any subsequent characters, can be any
alphanumeric character, *, or ?. The X25AM subsystem does not support wild-card
