Object-Spec Syntax
This subsection describes the syntax rules for an object-spec, which is a
combination of an object-type and an object-name.
The variable object-spec appears throughout the command descriptions to
represent all variations of object references. The general form of object-spec is
Object States
Objects can have operational states, such as STOPPING or STARTING. The exact
sequence of states an object goes through varies from object to object and from
subsystem to subsystem. Some subsystem commands recognize only a few states.
The operational state of an object at a given instant is important. For example, certain
commands have no effect on objects unless those objects are in a specific state.
The following states are recognized by the X25AM subsystem:
STOPPED
The object is not ready for normal operations. STOPPED is equivalent to
down, not ready, or killed.
STARTED
The object is initialized. The object is ready for normal data traffic when
LinkState is READY.
