Configuring Services for a Gatekeeper
A gatekeeper is a special file server that is located in the hub of an
internetwork and is able to see all public services from all connected sites. A
gatekeeper stores routing and services information in its bindery, Novell's
equivalent of a telephone book. Using STATICON, you can obtain a list of
services available from a gatekeeper and select the required services for
advertisement by your local router. For more information about gatekeepers
and binderies, refer to “Static Routes and Services” on page 28.
To configure services for a gatekeeper, complete the following steps:
1 Load STATICON.
2 Select Configure Services for Gatekeepers .
STATICON displays the IPX Calls screen, a list of on-demand calls of
which IPX is currently aware. It also shows the connection state of each
call.
3 Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to select the WAN call destination
associated with the remote router.
4 If the Status field associated with the call reads Not Connected , press Ins
to connect the call.
5 Wait for the Status field to change to Connected .
This can take several seconds if you are using a dial-up line.
6 Press Enter .
The Select Configuration Option For This Call screen displays.
7 Select Configure Local Routes and Services .
The Configured Services screen displays.
