A network connection
The following figure shows a network-connection configuration for two database servers.
The client application is on host river and the database server is on host valley.
An sqlhosts entry for the valley_ds database server is defined on both computers.
Both computers are on the
same TCP/IP network, but the host river uses sockets for its
network programming interface, while the host valley uses TLI
for its network programming interface. The nettype field must
reflect the type of network programming interface used by the computer
on which sqlhosts is located. In this example,
the nettype field for the valley_ds database server
on host river is onsoctcp
, and the nettype field
for the valley_ds database server on host valley is ontlitcp
.
