ncacn_vns_spp attribute

The ncacn_vns_spp keyword identifies Banyan Vines SPP as the protocol family for the endpoint. This protocol family is obsolete and should not be used in new applications.

endpoint("ncacn_vns_spp:server-name[port-address]")

Parameters

server-name

Specifies the StreetTalk name of the server. The name is of the form item@group@organization. The item can be up to 31 characters long and the group and organization can be up to 15 characters.

port-name

Specifies a Banyan Vines SPP port. The valid range for static endpoints is 250– 511.

Remarks

In order to use the ncacn_vns_spp transport protocol in distributed applications running on Windows 2000, the appropriate Banyan Enterprise Client software must be installed. After installation, open Control Panel, choose Configuration and Add, then select Service | Banyan | RPC services for Banyan. Support for 16-bit clients requires appropriate Vines software. For more information about Banyan's Enterprise Client product and 16-bit Vines software, contact Banyan.

The syntax of the Banyan Vines SPP transport port string, like all port strings, is defined independently of the IDL specification. The compiler performs some syntax checking but does not guarantee that the endpoint specification is correct. Some errors may be reported at run time rather than at compile time.

Note

This protocol family is not supported in Windows XP.
