The APT which you specify need not be stipulated by a standardization committee i e you may stipulate your own APT It must satisfy the following two conditions it must be unique throughout the network it must be made up of values that are permissible according to the table above A remote partner that requests AETs must know this APT in order to set up a connection Application Entity Qualifier AEQ The AEQ identifies an access point within an application You can assign AEQs to the access points of an application only if you have assigned an APT to that application It is assigned by the operator of the application The AEQ is a positive whole number between 0 and 67108863 You must not use the same AEQ more than once within an application i e there must never be two access points with the same AEQ in one application However you do not have to assign all the access points in an application to an AEQ 118 openFT V12 0 for Unix Systems User Guide 4 Working with openFT This chapter describes how you can work with openFT by various methods using the graphical interface the menu system openFT commands and the program interface 4 1 The openFT Explorer for X Window If you are working with an X terminal under the X Window interface you can use the functions of openFT via the graphical user interface the openFT Explorer Starting and exiting the openFT Explorer The openFT Explorer is calle
