External Telnet Servers

(For IBM's Communications Server only) If your site uses a Telnet server that run in its own address space (external Telnet server), your site can monitor them as ASMON class resources (type TNSERVER). In addition to standard ASMON commands, the following commands are available:

CL

Displays the status of the LUs for the server.

IT and ITF

Lists the connections to the server.

TWL

Displays the status of the server.

Check Telnet LUs

If IBM TCP/IP encounters an error while acquiring an LU for a Telnet connection request, it flags the LU as inactive and will not use the LU for future connections.

Over a period, a number of LUs may be flagged as inactive, which reduces the number of possible Telnet sessions available.

You can view and check the status of the LUs for a Telnet server using the IP Resource Monitor.

Note: Checking Telnet LUs can cause many messages to be written to the console and can take some time to complete.

To check Telnet LUs, enter CL (Check Telnet LUs) next to a Telnet server ASMON resource.

The Problem Telnet LUs panel appears. The panel lets you activate the LUs from the following perspectives:

If there are no problem Telnet LUs, the following message appears on the Problem Telnet LUs panel:

IPCK7704 NO TELNET LU PROBLEMS FOUND.
