Once you have defined a profile for the command port, you must assign that profile number to a
channel. To do this, use the procedures described previously in this chapter in Assigning a Profile
to a Channel Port.
After you assign the command profile number to a channel, you must define a separate channel
group for the command channel port. The procedures for defining the channel group are the same
as those described in Defining a Channel Group for a Terminal or PC with one exception: in Step
3, instead of selecting the Local Group, select the Datagram Group (Option 5). Selecting Option 5
causes the Datagram Group Definition screen to display.
If, for example, the group number 12 has been assigned to the command channel port and has the
719 NETWORKER Channel 3 connected to the command port on the NMS host computer, group
number 12 appears next to Datagram Group Definition, and the channel port number is entered
in the Group Members field. Make sure you enter the appropriate group number for your
configuration.
If a 724, 731, 735, or 74x multiplexer is to be attached to the NETWORKER, you must assign a
symbolic name to the command channel port. Refer to the Assigning Symbolic Names section later
in this chapter.
Defining an External Systems Port Profile
This procedure configures a channel port on the 719 NETWORKER, so that it can properly
connect to the external systems port on the 6800 Series NMS.
To define a profile for an external systems channel port, use the procedures described in the
Defining a Profile for a Channel Port section. The parameters for the external systems profile in
Step 6 should match those shown below:

Once you have defined a profile for the external systems channel port, you must assign that profile
number to a channel. To do this, use the procedures described previously in this chapter in
Assigning a Profile to a Channel Port.
After you assign the external systems profile number to a channel, you must define a separate local
channel group for the external systems channel port. The procedures for defining a local channel
group are the same as those described in Defining a Channel Group for a Terminal or PC. In
Step 3, the parameters for the external systems channel group should match except in the Group
Members field.
