This command will fill the checklist with the names of all the currently available connections on the machine.

PERFORM CHECKLIST FOR NET CONNECTIONS

This command does not return a value.

There are usually four types of connections available to you including TCP/IP, IPX, Modem and Serial. TCP/IP is used to connect via an IP Address and is used for Internet games. IPX is used for playing net games over a Local Area Network (LAN). A Modem connection is a two player net game with a Dial player and a Receive player, played over a phone line. A Serial connection is a direct cable connecting two machines, and acts much like a Modem connection. The index of the checklist is also the connection number associated with the connection description obtained from this command. Use the CHECKLIST commands in the SYSTEM command set to read the checklist.
