Hello!

Am currently trying to configure a particular port (say port 1) for SLIP
connectivity. Don't have the corresponding manuals on hand --
so I just logged in to the terminal server, set priv-ed and was brought
in to the Local> prompt.

Tried help command and tutorial (on how to configure it as SLIP) and am
somewhat faced by this error message below:

Local> CHANGE PORT 1 SLIP HOST (ip.address)
Local> CHANGE PORT 1 FLOW CONTROL DISABLED

(NOTE: The 2 preceeding commmands worked just fine).. but not the last one..

Local> CONNECT SLIP

Local -550- SLIP not enabled on that port
Local> connect port 1 slip
Local -702- Keyword "SLIP" not known or ambiguous
Local> CONNECT SLIP
Local -550- SLIP not enabled on that port
Local> CONNECT PORT 1 SLIP
Local -702- Keyword "SLIP" not known or ambiguous

What more could I have missed? Comments are all welcome!

Do I still have to configure something on the Alpha? Am currently on a v2.0b.

Followup question:

Is it possible on a DEC700 to configure in such a way that a particular
port can be assigned to a particular tty (or the other way around).

Ideas?
