Description

PMDF TEST/X400 is a utility for testing PMDF's Attribute Value Pair List (AVPL) address transformations, in particular those performed by PMDF-X400 or PMDF-MR channels, though FAX and MHS address transformations may also be tested. The utility can also be used to "dump" X.400 (P1) or Message Router (NBS) files, or indeed the bytes of arbitrary binary files.

Command Qualifiers

/DEBUG

NODEBUG (default)

Specify whether to display debug output.

/ENVELOPE

/HEADER (default)

Specify whether addresses will default to header (the default) or envelope style transformations.

/FAX

/MB400

/MHS

/MR

/MRIF

/X484

/X488 (default)

Specify what sort of addresses will be transformed. The specification of one of these qualifiers sets the address transformation database(s) to use, the ORNAMEs to use, and whether LHS_ORDER or RHS_ORDER should be the default. The default, if no such qualifier is explicitly set, is /X488, meaning that X.400-1988 address transformations will be used.

/FORWARD

/REVERSE (default)

Specify whether addresses will default to forward or reverse (the default) style transformations.

/IMAGE_FILE=file-spec

/NOIMAGE_FILE

The /IMAGE_FILE qualifier may be used to point to a non-default PMDF compiled configuration image. The /NOIMAGE_FILE qualifier may be used to cause the utility to disregard any compiled PMDF configuration and instead run directly from the PMDF configuration text files.

/LHS_ORDER

/RHS_ORDER

These qualifiers specify whether left-to-right or right-to-left ordering of attributes in the local part of an RFC 822 address will be assumed. The default will depend upon which qualifier(s) were specified on the PMDF TEST/X400 command line: for X.400 address processing as with the /MB400, /X484, or /X488 qualifiers, right-to-left ordering is the default; for Message Router address processing as with the /MR or /MRIF qualifiers, left-to-right ordering is the default.

/RESTRICTED

/NORESTRICTED (default)

Specified whether or not to use restricted encoding of addresses.

EXAMPLES

$ PMDF TEST/X400/X488
X400> ... 
X400> EXIT
      

This example shows how to invoke the PMDF TEST/X400 utility for testing X.400-1988 address transformations, and then exit the utility with the EXIT command. Specifying the /X488 qualifier will cause use of the following defaults: DATABASE X400, RHS_ORDER, and ORNAME X488.

$ PMDF TEST/X400/X484
X400> ... 
X400> EXIT
      

This example shows how to invoke the PMDF TEST/X400 utility for testing X.400-1988 address transformations, and then exit the utility with the EXIT command. Specifying the /X484 qualifier will cause use of the following defaults: DATABASE X400, RHS_ORDER, and ORNAME X484.

$ PMDF TEST/X400/MB400
X400> ... 
X400> EXIT
      

This example shows how to invoke the PMDF TEST/X400 utility for testing Mailbus 400 (X.400-1988) address transformations using PMDF-MB400's own special TO_MB400 and FROM_MB400 databases, and then exit the utility with the EXIT command. Specifying the /MB400 qualifier will cause use of the following defaults: DATABASE X400 (but using the TO_MB400 and FROM_MB400 databases rather than the default TO_X400 and FROM_X400 databases), RHS_ORDER, and ORNAME X488.

$ PMDF TEST/X400/MR
X400> ... 
X400> EXIT
      

This example shows how to invoke the PMDF TEST/X400 utility for testing Message Router address transformations, and then exit the utility with the EXIT command. Specifying the /MR qualifier will cause use of the following defaults: DATABASE MR, LHS_ORDER, and ORNAME MR.

$ PMDF TEST/X400/MRIF
X400> ... 
X400> EXIT
      

This example shows how to invoke the PMDF TEST/X400 utility for testing Message Router address transformations using PMDF-MR's MRIF channel special TO_MRIF and FROM_MRIF databases, and then exit the utility with the EXIT command. Specifying the /MRIF qualifier will cause use of the following defaults: DATABASE MR (but using the TO_MRIF and FROM_MRIF databases rather than the default TO_MR and FROM_MR databases), LHS_ORDER, and ORNAME MR.
