Use the CONNECT command to enable a local terminal to act as the
console for a remote system.

NODEVIA

Use the CONNECT NODE command to set up a logical connection between
the host node and the console interface on a specified target node.
Both the host node and the target node must be on the same Ethernet
circuit.

Use the SET NODE command to initially specify the default
values for the SERVICE CIRCUIT, SERVICE PASSWORD, and HARDWARE ADDRESS
parameters for the target node.  Once set, you can override these
default parameters for the target node by specifying new parameters in
the CONNECT command.

CONNECT NODE node-id    (parameters ...)

All underscores found in parameters must be replaced with spaces
when parameters are used in NCP commands.

Examples

specifies the Ethernet physical address of the target node.  This
parameter is required.  The value is the Ethernet address the target
node has set for itself or, if the target has not set an Ethernet
address, the HARDWARE ADDRESS parameter associated with the target
node in the executor node's volatile database.  The address is a string
of 12 hexadecimal digits  represented by 6 bytes separated by hyphens.

specifies the circuit to be used to create the logical link between
the host node and the target node.  This circuit must be an Ethernet
circuit.

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.

     NCP>CONNECT NODE RTRDEV SERVICE PASSWORD FEFEFEFEFEFEFEFE -
     _ 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 RTRDEV specifying the service password
         FEFEFEFEFEFEFEFE, the service circuit UNA-0, and the Ethernet
         physical address AA-00-04-38-00.

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 Ethernet circuit.

All underscores found in parameters must be replaced with spaces
when parameters are used in NCP commands.

PHYSICAL ADDRESSSERVICE PASSWORD

Examples

     NCP>CONNECT VIA UNA-0 PHYSICAL ADDRESS AA-00-04-38-00

         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 Ethernet physical address
         of the target node.

specifies the Ethernet physical address of the target node.  This
parameter is required.  The value is the Ethernet address the target
node has set for itself.

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.
