set up network access as follows: configuration-statements As with all configuration statements, network access configurations can affect items within the workspace hierarchy that use
Item-configuration, or items in a particular class hierarchy that use Instance-configuration.
set up network access as follows: configuration statements, you can allow or prohibit different kinds of network access, using several clauses as follows. For a complete description of using configurations, see Chapter 7, Configurations.
Allowing or Prohibiting Connect Access
The allow/prohibit connect clauses are different from other configurations in these ways:
prohibit connect access to an entire KB by adding the configuration statement to the KB Configuration system table, you cannot override that prohibitive state with a subsequent configuration statement. When you require network access with security, you can configure the KB to allow network access at a broad level, and prohibit access at specific levels. For example, to implement network access with security, you could allow connect access but restrict reading, writing, and executing objects that need to be hidden. In this way, you can provide a restricted KB view to an external connecting process, while still allowing network access.
Prohibiting access can be absolute, by including a
prohibit absolutely clause in the configuration statement, which indicates that no other configuration clauses anywhere in the class hierarchy can override the configuration.
