Before configuring a TCP/IP channel, you must select a domain name (e.g., "naples.example.com") for each of the machines which will run PMDF. Associated with each domain name is an IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1
). If the implementation of TCP/IP which you use supports domain literals and you want to configure PMDF to use domain literal addressing (e.g., bob@[192.168.1.1]
), then you will also want to have at hand the IP addresses for each of
the machines for which PMDF will be configured.
The pmdf configuration
utility will create TCP/IP channels for you. If you use this utility to
configure TCP/IP channels, then many configuration steps will have been
performed for you. On OpenVMS you must still be sure to disable the
native SMTP server, as described in Section 21.1.3. On all platforms,
be sure to complete all the configuration utility checklist steps,
including configuring the PMDF Service Dispatcher. Process Software
strongly recommends that the configuration utility be used to configure
TCP/IP channels. Documentation on the configuration utility can be
found in the appropriate edition of the PMDF Installation Guide.
