Data Communications Standard Definitions
ZCOM-OBJ-LINE
is a data communications line connected through a modem to an X.25 network.
ZCOM-OBJ-NULL
does not represent an X25AM object. It is used as the object type in commands
that do not require an object-name token.
ZCOM-OBJ-PROCESS
is an X25AM line-handler process running on a NonStop system.
ZCOM-OBJ-SU
is an X25AM subdevice that can be opened in the GUARDIAN environment.
ZCOM-TKN-OBJNAME
contains the name of an X25AM object.
The object name of a LINE object is the name of a specific line configured on a
single system. These names are assigned at system-generation time, and they are
unique within a system.
The object name of a SUBDEVICE object is the name of a specific subdevice
configured on a single line. These names are assigned through the ADD
command, and they must be unique within the line.
The NULL object has no object name.
The object name of a PROCESS object is the object name of the line controlled by
the process.
The object-name token is required in all X25AM commands for which the object
type is not ZCOM-OBJ-NULL. If the object type for a command is ZCOM-OBJ-
NULL, the object-name token must not be present. Some X25AM commands
accept more than one object name when the object type is SU.
ZCOM-TKN-OBJTYPE
contains the object type of an X25AM object.
ZCOM-TKN-SUB
indicates whether or not objects subordinate to the object whose name appears in
the object-name token are to be affected by the command.
This token can appear in an X25AM command only if the object type is ZCOM-
OBJ-LINE; however, not all commands that accept ZCOM-OBJ-LINE as an object
type accept the token ZCOM-TKN-SUB. The objects subordinate to an X25AM line
are the subdevices on the line.
