Figure 4-18. LAT Service for a Serial Port.
If Statement 3 from the previous example is replaced by the one above,
associate it with serial port 1.
Other configuration commands that may apply here are:
• DEFINE SERVICE PASSWORD—This assigns a password to a LAT service.
The LAT node that would access that service must submit this password.
• DEFINE SERVICE QUEUE ENABLED/DISABLED—This indicates the
use of the LAT queue facility. When this option is enabled, any request
for a LAT session to the service will be queued and attended to on a FIFO
(First-In, First-Out) basis.
4.8 Configuring Printer Ports

TCP/IP P
RINTERS
The process of configuring a printer in a TCP/IP environment involves two
key steps:
• Definition of a
Telnet listener
function to the port where the printer is
connected.
• Defining the printer in the host printing system by having it use either
Telnet or the compatible
prtcp
program as the printing program.
A Telnet listener is defined in the Terminal Server and a printer is
defined in the UNIX system. The UNIX printer is directed to use a script and
the script is executed with a Telnet command. When a print job is sent by
UNIX, a Telnet session is established and the data is sent to the Terminal
Server. The Terminal Server, based on the TCP port used in the session, will
pass the data either to the serial or to the parallel port defined in the Telnet-
Listener command. UNIX may use either the original Telnet program or the
prtcp
program. The same parameters are used in either.
