NAME

show mapping - Shows the elements of the either the local or a remote endpoint map

SYNOPSIS

rpccp show mapping   [host-address]
[-i if-id   [-v versions]]
[-o object-uuid [ -o object-uuid...]]

OPTIONS

-i
Defines an interface identifier to be shown (optional). Only one interface can be shown in a single operation. If specified, only elements containing this interface identifier are shown. The -i option can be qualified by the -v option. The value has the following form:

interface-uuid,major-version.minor-version

The UUID is a hexadecimal string and the version numbers are decimal strings, for example: 


-i ec1eeb60-5943-11c9-a309-08002b102989,1.1
Leading zeros in version numbers are ignored.

-v
Indicates how a specified interface version is used (optional). If it is used without the -i option, the -v option is ignored. The possible combinations of versions for the -v option and their actions are described in the following table. 

       __________________________________________________
       __________________________________________________
        Versions     Action
       __________________________________________________
        all
                     The interface version is ignored.
        exact
                     Both the major and  minor  versions
                     must match the specified versions.
        compatible
                     The major version  must  match  the
                     specified  version,  and  the minor
                     version must  be  greater  than  or
                     equal to the specified version.
        major_only
                     The major version  must  match  the
                     specified    version;   the   minor
                     version is ignored.
        upto
                     The major version must be less than
                     or equal to that specified.  If the
                     major versions are equal, the minor
                     version  must be less than or equal
                     to that specified.
       __________________________________________________

If the -v option is absent, the command shows compatible version numbers.

-o
Defines an object to be shown (optional). Each show mapping command accepts up to 32 -o options.

The UUID is a hexadecimal string, for example: 


-o 3c6b8f60-5945-11c9-a236-08002b102989

ARGUMENTS

host-address
The host-address argument is a string binding that indicates where to find the target endpoint map. When accessing the local endpoint map, you can specify which protocol sequence to use (optional); for example, 

ncadg_ip_udp:
When accessing a remote endpoint map, you must specify both a protocol sequence and a network address for the remote system (required); for example, 

ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44
An endpoint is unnecessary in local or remote host addresses, and the remove mapping command ignores any endpoint specified as part of a host address.

DESCRIPTION

The show mapping command shows elements of an endpoint map. Each element corresponds to an object UUID, interface identifier, annotation, and binding information. The binding information contains an RPC protocol sequence, a network address, and an endpoint within square brackets (rpc- prot-seq:network-addr[endpoint]).

The endpoint map can be either the local endpoint map or the endpoint map of a specified remote host. If entered without a remote host address, the command accesses the local endpoint map. For the local endpoint map, a show mapping command without any options displays all the map elements. For a remote endpoint map, map elements are accessible only for protocol sequences that are supported on both your system and the remote system.

The options list a selected subset of map elements. The - i option selects a specific interface, and the -v option qualifies the -i option. The -o object selects a specific object. You can use from 0 to 32 -o options per command. The options work together to specify the subset of elements for the target protocol sequence(s).

NOTES

Note that to ensure that you can remotely display all map elements from every remote endpoint map, run the RPC control program on a system that supports all of the protocol sequences available in your network environment.

This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

EXAMPLES

The following commands start the control program and show the map elements in the local endpoint map that contain the specified interface identifier: 
$ rpccp
rpccp> show mapping -i ec1eeb60-5943-11c9-a309-08002b102989,1.1

The following rpccp show mapping command operates from the system prompt. The command accesses the endpoint map of the remote host specified by the host address (ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44) and displays the one map element that contains both the specified interface identifier and the specified object UUID: 

$ rpccp show mapping \
> -i ec1eeb60-5943-11c9-a309-08002b102989,1.1 \
> -o 30dbeea0-fb6c-11c9-8eea-08002b0f4528  \
> ncadg_ip_udp:16.20.16.44
