Introduces a service parameter. All underscores found in parameters must be replaced with spaces when parameters are used in NCP commands.
1 – CIRCUIT circuit-id
Establishes the circuit to be used for downline loading. This is the default value for the VIA parameter of the LOAD and CONNECT commands. The node identification must be that of the target node.
2 – DEVICE device-type
Identifies the target node's line controller for the service circuit over which the operation is to take place. The possibilities are as follows. BNA CEC DA DL DLV DMB DMC DMF DMP DMR DMV DP DQ DSB DSF DSW DTE DU DUP DV DW4 DZ ELA ERA ETA EWA FPA FZA ISA KDP KDZ KL MFA MNA MXE PCL QNA SVA TRA TRE TRP UNA VLA Only the synchronous port on the DMF service device may be used.
3 – NODE VERSION version
Specifies the DECnet software version of the node which downline loads its software to a target node. The two possible versions are PHASE III and PHASE IV. The default is PHASE IV.
4 – PASSWORD hex-password
Defines the password required to trigger the bootstrap mechanism on the target node. The password is a hexadecimal number. For DDCMP circuits, the password is in the range 0 to FFFFFFFF; for broadcast circuits, it is in the range 0 to FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. The default is 0.
