Disable New Bindings

You can tell the DSA to refuse any requests for a new binding. You may want to do this, for example, as a prelude to gracefully closing a DSA.

To disable new bindings

1. Use Telnet to connect to the DSA for which you want to prevent additional bindings.
2. On a DSA console, use the following command:

   set allow-binds=false;
   

   Note: If a user tries to bind to the DSA after you have issued this command, it refuses and returns an error message.

3. (Optional). You can re-enable new bindings with the following command:

   set allow-binds=true;
