To enable the Router Manager (XRM) feature of X.25 Server, simply code XRMMEM =<member_name> on the X25.NET command. XRMMEM refers to a member name in the PARMLIB dataset.
In the XRMMEM member, the XRMADD command can be used to define as many routers as required.
For example:
XRMADD NAME=ROUTER-01,
ADDR=10.1.1.254,
LOGONPW='CDCCDECE0A0F1E28',
ENABLEPW='8F3B90875FF97747',
MONITOR=YES,DEBUG=EVENTS,
STATS=(10,RESET)
The logon and enable passwords are encrypted using the OMXXRMPW utility in the SOMXREXX dataset.
The XRMTRAP command can then be used to capture the information and write it to a log and/or call an EXEC member to be given control. With a little bit of Rexx programming the possibilities are then virtually unlimited.
For example:
XRMTRAP ADD,MID=OMXXF305I,MEM=SENDALRT,LOG=PLOG7
It should be noted that ANY router that can be reached from the host running X.25 Server can be monitored. It does not have to be a router defined on an X25.PIPE command.
For additional information on Router Manager, please refer to Chapter 6 of the Administrator Guide.
