Using dscp sessions

Before you can view, add, or modify server entries, you must open a session: Opening a dscp session allows you to interact with interfaces.

You can have multiple sessions open at any one time.

Opening a session

To open a session with interfaces, enter:

open InterfacesDriver

When you open a session, dscp tells you the session’s number. For example, if you open a session with interfaces using the open InterfacesDriver command, dscp returns the following message:

ok
Session 1 InterfacesDriver>>

Listing sessions

To list all open sessions, enter:

sess

Switching between open sessions

To switch to another open session, enter:

switch SESS

where SESS is the session number. For example, if you enter:

switch 3

you are switched to session 3. The switch keyword is optional. If you enter the following:

3

you are also switched you to session 3.

Closing a session

To close a session, enter:

close SESS

where SESS is the session number. For example, if you enter:

close 3

session 3 is closed. Use the sess command to list all open sessions.

If you do not specify SESS, the current session is closed.
