Use the CONNECT VIA command to set up a logical connection between the host node and the console interface on a target node using the specified circuit. Use the CONNECT VIA command instead of the CONNECT NODE command if the node address of the target node is not known. Both the host node and the target node must be on the same broadcast circuit. CONNECT VIA circuit-id (parameters ...) All underscores found in parameters must be replaced with spaces when parameters are used in NCP commands.
1 – Examples
NCP>CONNECT VIA UNA-0 PHYSICAL ADDRESS AA-00-04-00-38-00 This command connects the host node to the console interface on the target node by specifying the circuit over which the connection is to be made and the physical address of the target node.
2 – PHYSICAL ADDRESS
Specifies the physical address of the target node. This parameter is required. The value is the physical address the target node has set for itself.
3 – SERVICE PASSWORD
Identifies the password required to create the logical link between the host node and the target node. The password is a hexadecimal number in the range 0 to FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.
