The HP 9000 Internet Services enable your HP 9000 computer to transfer
files, log into remote hosts, execute commands remotely, and exchange mail
with remote hosts on the network. The Internet Services product was
previously called the ARPA Services.
A link product, such as LAN/9000 or X.25/9000, must be installed for the
Internet Services to function. The link product provides the hardware and
software needed for communication by an HP 9000 computer over an IEEE
802.3, Ethernet Local Area Network, or X.25 packet switch network. NS
and NFS Services also require link software and can run concurrently on the
same node with the Internet Services.
The information in this manual applies to all HP 9000 computer systems
unless specifically noted otherwise.
