2.3.7 outbound

Syntax:
outbound <path>
Example:

This command specifies your outbound path. This outbound path is binkley-style. A binkley style outbound consists of a base path and subdirectories. Each subdirectory represents a place for all the files for one zone. The base path is the zone path for your base zone.

Example:

 
/var/spool/fido/out
This directory contains the files for your base zone.
/var/spool/fido/out.003
This directory contains the files for zone 3.
/var/spool/fido/out.00A
This directory contains the files for zone 10.

The zone directory contains the flow-files for each node. A Flow-file of a node has the name NNNNFFFF.?lo

 
NNNN
The 4-digit hex-number of the nodes netnumber.
FFFF
The 4-digit hex-number of the nodes nodenumber.
?
Here the flavour of the mails can be chosen. h-hold, c-crash, f-normal, d-direct, i-immediate.

For points there is a subdirectory with nodes flowfilename with suffix.pnt. In this subdirectory the flowfiles have the names PPPPPPPP ( 8-digit point number in hex).

For a deeper background on a binkley-style outbound see the binkley-term documentation and source code.
