ONNECT
Establishes a bi-directional connection between two ports. For more information
and command line examples, refer to
Section 8.1 . There are two different types of
port connections:
• Resident connect: If the /C command specifies one port name or number,
your resident port will be connected to the specified port.
• Third-party connect: If the /C command specifies two port names or numbers,
the Serial Port Manager connects the two ports indicated. A third-party
connect command is issued from a third port with supervisor-command
capability. User ports cannot initiate a third-party connect.
NOTE
Ports with user-command capability only connect to ports that share the
same port password.
Ports with supervisor-command capability are allowed to connect to all
other ports.
