LANCP, CONNECT, NODE, Qualifiers

1 - /DEVICE

       /DEVICE=device-name

    Specifies the LAN controller device name to be used for the
    connection. For example, you can specify a DEMNA controller as
    EXA, EXA0, or EXA0:.

2 - /DISCONNECT

       /DISCONNECT=disconnect-character

    Specifies a character that you can use to terminate the
    connection to the remote node. To terminate a connection, press
    Ctrl/disconnect-character. You can select any ASCII character
    from @ through Z, except C, M, Q, S, Y; the default disconnect
    character is D.

3 - /PASSWORD

       /PASSWORD=16hexdigits

    Supplies the password to be used when the connection
    is initiated, in hexadecimal (for example,
    /PASSWORD=0123456789ABCDEF). The default password is zero. You
    can omit leading zeros.

4 - /V3

    Indicates that MOP Version 3 formatted messages are to be used
    to make the connection. By default, LANCP determines the format
    by sending MOP Request ID messages to the remote node first in
    MOP Version 4 format, then in Version 3 format, repeating this
    process until a response is received or timeout occurs.

    You can specify the format:

    o  To allow connection to nodes that do not support Request ID
       messages

    o  As a means of getting around implementation problems with one
       of the formats

5 - /V4

    Indicates that MOP Version 4 formatted messages are to be used
    to make the connection. By default, LANCP determines the format
    by sending MOP Request ID messages to the remote node first in
    MOP Version 4 format, then in Version 3 format, repeating this
    process until a response is received or timeout occurs.

    You can specify the format:

    o  To allow connection to nodes that do not support Request ID
       messages

    o  As a means of getting around implementation problems with one
       of the formats
