Starting SAProuter
Prerequisites
Before using SAProuter, you should test its basic functions.
For more information, see Testing SAProuter Basic Functions
Procedure
To start SAProuter:
Enter saprouter -r in the input field. (IBM i: enter saprouter '-r' in the input field in batch mode if possible.)
This command starts SAProuter. The connections allowed are contained in the saprouttab
.
You can start SAProuter automatically when booting the system. Under UNIX, for example, you change your /etc/rc
file.
Note
If you want to run a high number of connections (more than 1000) via SAProuter, start the SAProuter using Option -r -Y <n>, and set the maximum number of clients to 2000 using Option -C <clients>, thus:
saprouter -r -Y 0 -C 2000
If this option is set, a new SAProuter is automatically started if the client table becomes full. New connections then use this new SAProuter.
