Called Address

Specifies the pattern of digits the PAD daemon uses to match the called address on incoming PAD calls. The options as shown in Table 7-6 are:

Table 7-6 Called and Calling Address Parameters

Parameter 

Meaning 

Starts with 

The PAD daemon accepts calls from PAD callers that have called addresses that have leading digits that match the string of digits you enter here. 

Matches 

The PAD daemon accepts calls from PAD callers that have called addresses that exactly match the string of digits you enter here. 

Don't care 

This is the default parameter. The PAD daemon accepts calls from any PAD caller, regardless of its called address. You do not enter a string of digits with this parameter. 

Pattern 

Allows the use of standard wildcard characters in order to match on part of an address. Select this option to use the style of addressing used by SunNet X.25 7.0. 

If the Called Address is not set to Don't Care, you also need to use the Address is parameter to specify the type of called address.

Address is:

Specify the type of the called address. If the called address is not a DTE address (the default), click on NSAP.

Calling Address

Specifies the pattern of digits the PAD daemon uses to match the calling address on incoming PAD calls. The options are explained under Called Address, above. You also need to use the Address is: parameter to specify the type of the calling address. If the Called Address is not set to Don't Care, you also need to set the Address is: parameter to DTE or NSAP extension.

Call User Data

Specifies the pattern of digits the PAD daemon uses to match the Call User Data on incoming PAD calls. By convention this is 01. Do not delete the 01 that appears in this field unless you are sure that your network uses a different value to distinguish incoming PAD calls. If this field is blank, or if the value entered is invalid, your machine will not be able to receive PAD calls.

Initial Command

The command that the PAD daemon invokes automatically when a connection is established with an incoming PAD caller. By default, the initial command is /bin/login.

Welcome Banner

A string that the PAD daemon displays to incoming PAD callers. Enter 80 or fewer alphanumeric (including whitespace) characters. If you do not set a string, the default is Solstice X.29 Terminal Services. The new Welcome Banner comes into effect the next time you restart the PAD Daemon.
