7.0;netsvc (network_service), revision 7.0, 83/09/24
NETSVC (NETWORK_SERVICE) -- Set or display network services.
usage:  NETSVC [-A|-N|-L|-R] [-P [n]]


FORMAT

  NETSVC [options]


  NETSVC sets or displays the network services that this node will perform.  All
  changes take place immediately.


OPTIONS

  If  no options are specified, NETSVC displays the network services allowed for
  this node.

  Default options are indicated by "(D)."

  -N                 None  --  Disable  all  network  services.    The  node  is
                     disconnected from the network.

  -L                  Local  --  Allow only network requests originating at this
                     node.

  -R                 Remote -- Allow only network requests originating at  other
                     nodes.

  -A           (D)    All  --  Allow both locally and remotely initiated network
                     requests.  (The size of  the  remote  paging  pool  is  not
                     changed.)

  -P [n]              Pool -- Set local memory pool size.  Network page requests
                     originating at remote nodes may not use more than 'n' pages
                     of the local node's memory.  If n is not specified, all  of
                     the  local  node's  memory  is  eligible  for  remote  page
                     requests.

  CAUTION: Be careful when revoking network access with -N or -L.   Remote  file
           users  may have problems, and writable files may be damaged.  If your
           node was the network partner for a  diskless  node,  that  node  will
           crash when your node leaves the network.


EXAMPLES

    $ netsvc
    Locally initiated network operations are allowed.
    Remotely initiated network operations are allowed.
