Well, many people have asked me "how do i use
Telenet".."how do i use an outdial". Well i have decided to
write a very basic file on telenet and how to get around on the networks.
Well Telenet and
others are PSN's or (Packet Switching Networks) these nets are connected to
many other networks around the world.
You can do alot with just basic knowledge that i have (most of you will
know this and way beyond what i know but some will benefit from it) i will
start with some of the terms that are often used with these services.
Access Number- The direct number that you dial to access a
network (duh).
Nua (Network Users Address) - An Nua is basicly a number you
type in to access that particular service think of an Nua as a phone number
sorta its not an actually phone number with an Acn country code or whatever
because the service is connected to the network world wide. I hope that was fairly clear let me show this
think of the planet earth as an network and
to reach the services on the planet you call the phone number like the
service is a persons residence or business phone or payphone whatever just like
on a network an Nua is the Address to a system or outdial whatever on the
particular network. I hope this is clear or atleast somewhat understood.
Nui (Network User Identification) - An Nui is like a Account
and Password to the network like an account and password is to a bbs that lets
you access the system. Some people use
Nui for like anything like an Vax system Unix systems they are referring to an Nui
as basicly a account on the particular system that lets you use the system.
DNIC (Data Network Identification Code) - The DNIC is like a
4 digit code that represents what Psn it is think of an DNIC like an AreaCode
and the Nua the individual phone number.
Outdial - Is basicly what it says an modem port connected
somewhere on the network that will allow you to dial out from and connect data
only to a actually phone number not an Nua.
Now i will explain various things and give helpful ideas.
Let me start off with some helpful things
for you to try and do.
