1 show
You use the show command to display the value of one or more
attributes of an entity. The general form of a show command is:
ncl> show entity-name attribute-specifier,...
An attribute-specifier can be the name of a particular attribute;
for example:
ncl> show node 0 ddcmp link link-5 protocol,transmit underruns,state
displays the following attributes of the entity ddcmp link link-5:
o The characteristic protocol
o The counter transmit underruns
o The status state
An attribute-specifier can also specify an entire class of
attributes, as follows:
o all [attributes]
o all characteristics
o all counters
o all identifiers
o all status
For example:
ncl> show node 0 ddcmp link link-5 all counters, all status
displays all counters and status attributes of the entity ddcmp
link link-5.
You can combine individual attribute names and attribute class
names; for example:
ncl> show node 0 ddcmp link link-5 protocol, all counters
displays the value of the characteristic protocol and the value
of all counters.
There are a few attributes whose value cannot be displayed. These
are usually attributes that represent secure information, such as
passwords.
The local node (node 0) is implied if no other node is specified.
Therefore, "show implementation" is equivalent to "show node 0
implementation", which is the command used to show the DECnet and
operating system versions of the local node.
Select an entity below for more information on the showable
attribute groups for that entity. Or if you wish to quickly view
all the showable attributes of a particular entity at once, you
may use the wildcard character. For example, to view the
showable attributes of osi transport, you could enter
"osi_tranport *" at the following "SHOW Subtopic?" prompt.

4 Characteristics
o selection weight
The number of sequential incoming connects to be passed to this
member node in the round-robin sequence before proceeding to the
next member node in the sequence. A value of zero means this node
is not eligible to receive incoming connections to this alias
address. Selection Weight is used to apportion incoming alias
connections according to the capacity of each alias member. Nodes
with greater capacity should have larger values of Selection
Weight, while local area VMScluster satellities should generally
have a value of zero. Values between 0 and 10 are suggested.
NOTE
The nsp maximum transport connection value determines the
number of connections on an alias member. If the Alias Port
is enabled, changing the nsp maximum transport connection
value has no effect.
o outgoing default
Default: False Value: Boolean
Controls whether this alias is to be used as the default alias
for this node. If true, this alias node name will be used for
connect requests on an outgoing connection from a session control
application with the outgoing alias attribute set to true.
4 Counter
o creation time
Specifies the time at which the entity was created.
4 Identifier

4 Counters
Unless stated otherwise, counts include both normal and multicast
traffic and all protocol types, service access points (SAPs), and
protocol identifiers.
o creation time
Time at which the port was created.
o multicast octets received
Number of multicast data octets that were successfully received
and made available to the port user. The count is the number
of octets in the CSMA/CD user data field and does not include
MAC (medium access control, a sublayer of the CSMA/CD Data Link
layer) headers. Comparing this count to the octets received count
yields the gross percentage of bandwidth that was consumed (over
time) by multicast PDUs received by the port.
o multicast octets sent
Number of multicast data octets that were successfully sent
through the port. The count is the number of octets in the MAC
user data field, including any padding or length fields; it does
not include MAC headers. Comparing this count to the octets sent
count yields the gross percentage of bandwidth that was consumed
(over time) by multicast pdus transmitted by the port.
o multicast pdus received
Number of multicast PDUs that were successfully received and
made available to the port user. Counted PDUs passed address and
protocol filtering and were received without errors. Comparing
this count to the pdus received count yields a gross percentage
of CSMA/CD usage for multicast pdus received by this port.
o multicast pdus sent
Number of multicast PDUs that were successfully sent through the
port. Comparing this count to the pdus sent count yields a gross
percentage of CSMA/CD usage for multicast pdus sent by this port.
o octets received
Total number of MAC user data octets that were successfully
received and made available to the port user. Counted frames
passed address and protocol filtering for both individual and
multicast MAC addresses and were received without errors. The
count is the number of octets in the CSMA/CD user data field
plus any padding, Ethernet length fields, or logical link control
(LLC) header fields; it does not include MAC headers. Adding the
octets received count to the protocol overhead calculated from
the pdus received count yields the amount of CSMA/CD bandwidth
consumed by frames received by the port.
o octets sent
Total number of user data octets that were successfully sent
through the port. The count is the number of octets in the MAC
user data field including any padding or length fields; it does
not include MAC headers. Adding the octets sent count to the
protocol overhead calculated from the pdus sent count yields the
amount of CSMA/CD bandwidth consumed (over time) by frames sent
by the port.
o pdus received
Total number of PDUs that were successfully received and made
available to the port user. Counted PDUs passed address and
protocol filtering and were received without errors. The count
provides a gross measurement of incoming CSMA/CD usage by the
port.
o pdus sent
Total number of PDUs that were successfully sent through the
port. The count provides a gross measurement of outgoing CSMA/CD
usage by the port.
o unavailable user buffers
Number of times that no user buffer was available at the port for
an incoming frame that passed all filtering for the port. Used
in conjunction with the pdus received count, this counter can
indicate the rate of user buffer receive problems.

add and remove length fields. This attribute is irrelevant for
ISO 8802-3 formatted frames, which always have a length field.
false The data link does not add and remove length fields.
true The data link adds and removes length fields.
o llc sap addresses
Set of individual and group logical link control (LLC) service
access point (SAP) addresses that are currently recognized for

modify this characteristic.
4 Counters
Unless stated otherwise, counts include both normal and multicast
traffic and all protocol types, service access points (SAPs), and
protocol identifiers.
o alignment errors
Number of times a received frame did not contain an integral
number of octets.
o carrier check failures
Number of times the data link did not sense the receive carrier
signal or detected an error in the receive carrier signal during
transmission of a frame.
o collision detect check failures
Number of times the collision detect test signal was not sensed
after a transmission. If this count approximates the number of
frames sent, either the collision detect circuitry is not working
correctly or the test signal is not implemented.
o creation time
Time at which the station was created.
o data overruns
Number of times the hardware lost one or more consecutive,
partially complete, incoming frames because it could not keep
up with the incoming frame rate. Used in conjunction with pdus
received, this count provides a measure of hardware resource and
bandwidth failures.
o excessive collisions

allowable number of retransmission attempts all culminated in
collisions.
o frame check errors

algorithm on the first attempt at transmission, but was then
transmitted successfully without collision. Used in conjunction
with pdus sent, this count measures the rate of CSMA/CD
contention with no collisions.
o late collisions
Number of times a collision was detected after the allotted time
for collisions had expired.
o multicast octets received
Number of multicast data octets that were successfully received.
The count is the number of octets in the CSMA/CD user data field
and does not include MAC headers. Comparing this count to the
octets received count yields the gross percentage of bandwidth
that was consumed (over time) by multicast frames received by the
local system.
o multicast octets sent
Number of multicast data octets that were successfully sent.
The count is the number of octets in the MAC user data field,
including any padding or length fields; it does not include MAC
headers. Comparing this count to the octets sent count yields the
gross percentage of bandwidth that was consumed (over time) by
multicast frames transmitted by the local system.
o multicast pdus received
Number of multicast PDUs that were successfully received.
Comparing this count to the pdus received count yields a gross
percentage of CSMA/CD usage for multicast PDUs received by this
system.
o multicast pdus sent
Number of multicast PDUs that were successfully sent. Comparing
this count to the pdus sent count yields a gross percentage of
CSMA/CD usage for multicast PDUs sent by this system.
o multiple collisions pdus sent
Number of times a PDU was successfully transmitted on the third
or later attempt by the station access algorithm after normal
collisions on previous attempts. Used in conjunction with pdus
sent, this count provides a measure of CSMA/CD media contention
at a level where there are collisions and the backoff algorithm
no longer works efficiently.
o octets received
Total number of MAC user data octets that were successfully
received from frames that passed address and protocol filtering
for both individual and multicast MAC addresses. The count is
the number of octets in the CSMA/CD user data field plus any
padding, Ethernet length fields, or LLC header fields; it does
not include MAC headers. Adding the octets received count to the
protocol overhead calculated from the pdus received count yields
the amount of CSMA/CD bandwidth consumed by frames received by
the local system.
o octets sent
Total number of user data octets that were successfully sent.
The count is the number of octets in the MAC user data field
including any padding or length fields; it does not include MAC
headers. Adding the octets sent count to the protocol overhead
calculated from the pdus sent count yields the amount of CSMA
/CD bandwidth consumed (over time) by frames sent by the local
system.
o pdus received
Total number of PDUs that passed address and protocol filtering
and were received without errors. The count provides a gross
measurement of incoming CSMA/CD usage by the local system; this
information can be used in conjunction with other counters to
approximate the average receive frame size or to determine the
ratio of errors to successful receives.
o pdus sent
Total number of PDUs successfully sent. The count provides a
gross measurement of outgoing CSMA/CD usage by the local system;
this information can be used in conjunction with other counters
to approximate the average transmit frame size or to determine
the ratio of errors to successful transmissions.
o receive data length errors
Number of times a frame was received with a length field value
that was invalid for the number of octets actually received by
medium access control.
o send data length errors
Number of times the user requested transmission of an 802.3 frame
with a length field value that was not valid for the number of
octets actually passed.
o single collision pdus sent
Number of times a PDU was successfully transmitted on the second
attempt by the station access algorithm after a normal collision
occurred on the first attempt. Used in conjunction with pdus
sent, this count provides a measure of CSMA/CD media contention
at a level where there are collisions, but the backoff algorithm
still works efficiently.
o station failures
Number of times that the station self-testing procedures reported
failure.
o unavailable station buffers
Number of times a complete, fully received PDU was discarded
because no station buffer was available. Used with pdus received,
this count provides a measure of receive problems related to the
station buffer.
o unavailable user buffers
Number of times no user buffer was available for an incoming
frame that passed all filtering for the port. Used in conjunction
with the pdus received count, this counter can indicate the rate
of user buffer receive problems.
o unrecognized individual destination pdus
Number of times a received PDU with an individual destination MAC
address was discarded because there was no port with the correct
Ethernet protocol type, SNAP protocol identifier, or link logical
control SAP address enabled.
o unrecognized multicast destination pdus
Number of times a received PDU with a multicast destination MAC
address was discarded because there was no port with the correct
Ethernet protocol type, SNAP protocol identifier, or link logical
control SAP address enabled.

reflected The DTE transmit clock is a reflection of the
DCE transmit clock. This minimizes the clock to
data skew that the DCE encounters when high line
speeds are used.
The default value depends on the setting of the characteristic
communications mode. If communications mode is asynchronous, the
default value of this characteristic is internal. Otherwise, the
default value is external.

dialout The modem can dial the remote modem. Supported
only if the value of communications type is
switched. This value is supported by Tru64 UNIX
only.
direct The modem is directly connected to the remote
modem through a non-switched line. Supported
only if accompanied withdialout and used only
when the modem protocol type supports direct
dial. This value is supported by Tru64 UNIX
only.
rate select The modem is capable of data rate selection.
o modem protocol format (Tru64 UNIX)
Default: See following Value: See following description.
description.
Format to use for V.25bis protocol messages. This characteristic
applies only when the characteristic modem protocol type is
v25bis or dmcl.
asynchronous Use the asynchronous format.
hdlc Use the HDLC format.
synchronous Use the synchronous format.
The default value depends on the value of the characteristic
communications mode. If communications mode is asynchronous, the
default value of this characteristic is also asynchronous. If the
value of communications mode is synchronous, the default value of
this characteristic is hdlc.
o modem protocol type (Tru64 UNIX)
Default: V25bis Value: See description
Protocol that the modem uses to select modem options and to set
line control parameters.
at A set of automatic calling procedures used in the
Hayes Smart Modem 2400.
dmcl The Digital Modem Control Language, based on
V.25bis.
v25 A set of automatic calling and answering
procedures defined by CCITT. These procedures
use the 200-series circuits defined in the
CCITT recommendation V.24. The V.235 procedures
are also known as parallel automatic calling
procedures.
v25bis A set of automatic calling and answering
procedures defined by CCITT. These procedures
use the 100-series circuits defined in the CCITT
recommendation V.24. The V.25bis procedures
are also known as serial automatic calling
procedures.
o profile
Default: None
Name of the local profile to be used with the line. This profile
is used to restrict the range of various line attributes, and to
change the defaults for those attributes. The value of
this characteristic is a copy of the profile argument specified
when the entity is created.
o rate select
Default: High Value: High or Low
Specifies which of the line rates is to be used if none is
specified when a call is set up.
high The value of the speed characteristic is used.
low The value of the alternate speed characteristic
is used.
o speed
Default: 0
High speed, in bits per second, to be used on the line. This value
is always used on asynchronous links. It is used on synchronous
links only in the following circumstances:

o When a null modem cable is detected
o When using a loopback mode that uses internal clocking
o successful call indication timer
Default: 30
Maximum time, in seconds, that the entity will wait for indication
of a successful call before disconnecting the line. This
attribute is not supported if the characteristic modem
control is set to none.
o suppress test indicator
Default: False Value: True or false
Specifies whether the Test Mode signal is to be monitored. If the
value is false, a change in the circuit will be monitored and will
cause the Test Indication event to be generated.
You should set this characteristic to true in cases where the
transitions of this signal are not produced by entering test
mode, so that this signal should be ignored.
o transmit holdoff timer
Default: 0
Necessary delay, in milliseconds, between the transmitter
being disabled and then reenabled. The value 0 means
that the request to send signal can be asserted as soon as the
client requests it. This characteristic is not supported if the
characteristic modem control is set to none.

4 Interchange_Circuits
show modem connect line line-id all interchange circuits
The modem connect line entity has a special attribute group
"interchange circuits", which lets you show a subset of the
status attributes. This "interchange circuits" attribute
group allows you to examine the instantaneous status of the
interchange circuits on the line.
These circuits are known by different names in the various
interface standards. The following list shows how the status
attribute names used in NCL correspond to those used in the
interface standards.
For instance, the data terminal ready attribute is the name used
for the CCITT V.24 circuit 108/2, the EIA-232-D CD circuit, the
RS-499 TR circuit, and so on.
When entering commands, always use the NCL attribute name.
When displayed, each attribute has one of the following values:
asserted The circuit is asserted
not applicable The circuit does not exist on the interface
not asserted The circuit is not asserted
unknown The modem cable is not connected or is invalid

4 Characteristics
o addresses
Default: Empty set Value: Set of LAN addresses
Set of LAN addresses for this client on the circuit specified by
the circuit characteristic.
For OpenVMS, Phase IV nodes can use an extended DECnet LAN address in
addition to their hardware address, so you must include both of these
addresses in the addresses set. To calculate the extended DECnet
address, express the Phase IV node address as a four-digit hex
integer, then add the prefix AA-00-04-00.
For example, if the Phase IV node address is 4.260:
4.260
=> 4 * 1024 + 260

downline loaded. This address is passed in a load parameters
message; whether it is needed depends on the software being
loaded.
o phase iv client name
Default: No name Value: Phase IV name
Phase IV node name given to the client system when it is downline
loaded. This name is passed in a load parameters message; whether
it is needed depends on the software being loaded.
o phase iv host address
Default: 0.0 Value: Phase IV address

created.
2 nsp
show [node node-id] nsp attribute [,attribute...]
all [attributes]
all characteristics
all status
Examples:
show nsp all
show nsp congestion avoidance, maximum transport connections
3 Characteristics
o acknowledgment delay time
Default: 3 Value for OpenVMS: 0-65
Default: 3 Value for Tru64 UNIX: 3
Maximum amount of time (in seconds) that an acknowledgment is to
be withheld. You cannot modify this characteristic.
o congestion avoidance
Default: True Value: True or false
Enables the use of the automatic congestion avoidance mechanism.
This mechanism reduces the transport window size in response to an
indication from the Network layer.
o delay factor
Default: 2 Value: 2-15
Factor by which to multiply the current value of the round-trip
delay estimate status attribute in order to set a value for the
retransmission timer.
Note, the roundtrip delay estimate is an attribute of the nsp
port entity.
o delay weight
Default: 3 Value: 0-255
Relative weighting to apply to the current estimate and to a new
sample when estimating round-trip delay.
o dna version
Default: current version number
Version number of the DNA NSP architecture specification to
which the implementation conforms. You cannot modify this
characteristic.
o flow control policy
Default: Segment flow control Value: Segment flow control
no flow control
Determines NSP flow control policy used. This attribute may not be
changed when NSP state is "on."
Flow control is the mechanism that determines when to send a Data
or expedited messages. Flow control is performed separately for normal
and expedited data. During transport connection formation, each end of
the connection determines the kind of flow control policy it expects
when acting as a data receiver. It is not required that both end
operate with the same flow control policy.
o keepalive time
Default for Tru64 UNIX: 30 Value: 1-65535
Default for OpenVMS: 60 Value: 1-65535
Time (in seconds) that NSP waits for data to be transmitted or
received before testing a transport connection. When this timer
expires, NSP sends a data request PDU to the remote NSP. This
PDU does not change the flow control parameters, but does require
acknowledgment. For Tru64 UNIX, you can modify this characteristic
to a lower value only when the entity is disabled.
o maximum receive buffers (OpenVMS)
Default: 2000 Value: 1-65535
Maximum number of receive buffers that can store received transport
PDUs. You may not decrease the value while NSP is enabled.
o maximum remote nsaps
Default for Tru64 UNIX: 160 Value: 1-65535
Default for OpenVMS: 200 Value: 1-65535
Maximum number of remote NSAPs that can exist concurrently. Must
be greater than the current value of maximum transport connections.
You can modify this characteristic to a lower value only when the
entity is disabled. For Tru64 UNIX, this characteristic can be
increased when enabled.
o maximum transport connections
Default for Tru64 UNIX: 128 Value: 0-1023
Default for OpenVMS: 200 Value: 0-65535
Maximum number of active transport connections allowed at one
time. Must not be less than the current value of maximum remote
NSAPs. You may not decrease the value while NSP is enabled.
o maximum window
Default for Tru64 UNIX: 32 Value: 1-65535
Default for OpenVMS: 8 Value: 1-2047
Maximum credit window that can be granted on a transport connection.
This is used for control of the number of data segments (PDUs)
allowed to be transmitted over a particular transport connection
before at least one acknowledgment must be returned from the
destination system. If the number of PDUs already transmitted equals
the maximum window and no corresponding acknowledgments have been
received, transport stops sending PDUs over the transport connection

The application entity titles that map to this application's
presentation address.
o startup policy
Default: Existing Value: New or existing
Defines the startup policy for invocations of this application.
For Tru64 UNIX, the value is always existing. This indicates
that a listener process must exist for an inbound connection
to be processed. No new process is started up when an inbound
connection arrives.
For OpenVMS, the value is one of the following:
new Indicates that, when no process is available to handle
an inbound connection, a new process is started up.
existing Indicates that one process handles all inbound
connections. No new process is started up if the
existing process is busy when an inbound connection
arrives.
For OpenVMS, you can modify this attribute using the

5 Characteristic_(OpenVMS)
o startup information
Invocation startup information that is system-specific. This
information is needed only for passive applications.
Refer to the following table for specific startup information:
Mandatory
Item Value Description
---------------------------------------------------------------
user name The username of the process that will
respond to connect requests received by
this application.
file pathname The name of the file to run to start up the
named application. The file is a command
file or an executable image that is run
each time a passive process starts. Compaq
recommends that you use a command file for
this purpose.
Optional
Item Value Description
---------------------------------------------------------------
account name The account that is to start the process.
max resp integer The highest permissible number of
responders, for an application with the
new setting for startup policy.

{2}, or
{1,2}
You can modify the startup information attribute using the
set command. You can specify the items in any
order. Note that when you modify this attribute, any item for
which you do not specify a value is set to its default, not to
its previous value. For example, you could set up non-default
values for all four items in this attribute using the following
NCL command:
set [node node-id] osak application "presentation address" -
invocation invocation-identifier -
startup policy "password=password, username=username, -
file=file name, sversion=sversion"
If you then decide to change the value of the password, but to
keep the non-default values of the other items, you should use
the following command:
set [node node-id] osak application "presentation address" -
invocation invocation-identifier -
startup policy "password=new password, username=username -

You can identify an application with an object name or an object
number. Usually, applications are identified by network object
number 0, but you can optionally assign it a nonzero object number,
in the range from 128 to 255. A nonzero object number can be
specified without an application name. Object numbers 1 through
127 are reserved for use by Compaq. Specific network services
are identified by nonzero object numbers; for example, 27
represents the mail utility.
Examples:
show session control application * name, addresses
show session control application 26 all
4 Characteristics
o addresses
Default: Empty set Value: Set of end-user specifications
A set of end-user specifications, any one of which, when
specified in the destination name field of an incoming connection
request, causes applications defined by this entity to be
invoked.
An end-user specification can be either a name or a number.
Usually, applications are identified by network object
number 0, but you can optionally assign it a nonzero object number,
in the range from 128 to 255. A nonzero object number can be
specified without an application name. Object numbers 1 through
127 are reserved for use by Compaq. Specific network services
are identified by nonzero object numbers; for example, 27
represents the mail utility.
For example, the task application uses the address set {name=task},
and the mail application uses the address set {number=27}.
o accept mode (Tru64 UNIX)
Default: Immediate Value: Immediate or deferred
If accept mode is immediate, then session control will
automatically accept the connection before activating the
end user. If accept mode is deferred, then it is up to the
program to accept or reject the connection.
o allow decnet-internet gateway access (Tru64 UNIX)
Default: False Value: True or false
If true, this application supports gateway access. If the user
name supplied by the incoming connect request contains a @ or
!, the application spawner starts up the application under the
session control DECnet-Internet Gateway user.
o client
Data type: Entity name
Identifies the name of the local user that will be activated
upon receipt of a connect request containing a destination name
matching one of the values in the destination names attribute.
o data abstraction (Tru64 UNIX)
Default: Message Value: Message or stream
Type of data transfer interface the application will be using;
message type or stream type. The message data abstraction is
identical to the Sequenced-packet socket concept of the Phase IV
session control. When writing applications, you should use the
same data abstraction as that used by the program to which you
connect.

o image name
Default: No image name Value: File specification
File name of a program to be invoked upon receipt of a connection
request containing an address that matches one of the values
contained in the set described by the addresses characteristic.
o incoming alias (Tru64 UNIX)
Specifies how a particular application responds to incoming
connect requests directed to the alias node address. If False,
the application does not allow a specified application to receive
incoming connect requests that have been directed to the alias
node address.
o incoming osi tsel (OpenVMS)
Default: none Value: hex-string
A TSEL is a string of hex digits, the length of that string should
be an even number between 2 and 64, inclusive.
The TSEL this image will accept connections for. This is similar
to the destination names attribute. However, applications using
this access point for in-connection matching do not use DNA
Session Control protocol.
o incoming proxy
Default: True Value: True or false
Specifies whether to honor incoming proxy requests. If this
attribute is set to false, requests to invoke proxies on
incoming requests are ignored. The setting of this characteristic
overrides the setting of the session control incoming proxy
characteristic for the specified application.
o maximum instances (Tru64 UNIX)
Default: 0
Maximum number of simultaneous instances of this application
allowed. If a connect request comes in for this application
while the maximum number of instances exist, the connect request
will be rejected with ObjectTooBusy. A value of 0 indicates no
maximum.
o network priority (OpenVMS)
Default: 0 Value: 0-255
When operating over CLNS, indicates network priority encoded in
NPDU header for all transmitted packets. It may be used by
intermediate systems to assign the packets to queues of appropriate
priority.
o node synonym
Default: False Value: True or false
Default form in which the remote node name is passed to the
application.
false The full node name is used.
true The node synonym is used; if no synonym is available, the
full name is used.
o outgoing alias (OpenVMS)
Default: True Value: True or false
Specifies whether a particular object uses the alias node
identifier in its outgoing connect requests. If false,
the specified object is not allowed to use the alias node
address in its outgoing connect requests.
o outgoingalias name (OpenVMS)
Default: None Value: fullname
Specifies which alias name a particular object uses in its
outgoing connect requests when multiple aliases are in use.
If you do not set an application outgoingalias name and the
application has the outgoing alias set to true, the alias
name for which you set the alias port outgoing default true
is used for outgoing connect requests.
If you define application outgoingalias name, this supersedes
the setting of alias port outgoing default. So if the
application outgoing alias attribute is then set to false to
disable the application outgoingalias name, the local node
name is used.
If neither alias port going default nor application
outgoingalias name is set, the first alias created is used as
the default for the system. If this alias is not enabled,
the local node name is used.
o outgoing proxy (OpenVMS)
Default: True Value: True or false
Default action to execute when user does not explicitly
specify whether or not to invoke a proxy.
o programming interface (Tru64 UNIX)
Default: Phase IV Value: Phase IV or Phase V
Programming interface used by the DECnet application (socket
interface).
o user name
Default: None Data type: Latin1String
Identifies the default account under which the application is to
run. For OpenVMS, if null then system defaults are used to select
the user.

By default, XOT's single SAP entity is configured to listen
on all available IP interfaces (as specified by the local IP
address 0.0.0.0). You can create multiple SAP entities, each
listening on a unique IP address. However, if you create
more than one SAP entity, you must assign each entity a
unique IP address; no SAP entity can use the 0.0.0.0 address.
