Network Utility (ingnet)
The GUI-based tools Director, Network Utility (ingnet) can be used to define vnodes containing the connection and authorization data used by the Communications Server to access remote instances.
Because Network Utility is dedicated to defining and managing vnodes, it is the preferred tool for performing these tasks for the Actian Data Platform.
System administrators (or any user with the appropriate privileges) can use ingnet to perform the following tasks:
• Add, change, or delete global remote user authorizations or connection data entries.
• Add, change, or delete any user’s private remote user authorizations or connection data entries.
• Define an Installation Password for the local instance
End users can use ingnet to:
• Add, change, or delete their private connection data entries.
• Add, change, or delete their private remote user authorizations.
In Network Utility, vnodes are defined using vnode objects. A vnode object specifies a virtual node name, and login and connection information. Using the Nodes branch in the Virtual Nodes toolbar/window, you can create and alter vnodes, view vnode objects, and drop vnode objects. Detailed steps for these procedures can be found in the Procedures section of online help for ingnet.
