The SET BROAD USERn command is intended for use in user written programs or
third party products like Jnet. There is no VMS DCL command which makes use
of it. Thats why you can't find any documentation in the orange binders.

If you take the green-grey Jnet binder (Jnet V3.0) you'll find it documented
on page 6-4 in the user's guide.

Fist of all the system manger has to define the logical name JAN_BRD_BASE to
enable the ability to turn broadcast messages on and off. JAN_BRD_BASE must
translate to USERn.

Depending on USERn the user will be able to set three broadcast classes for
Jnet: USERn, USERn+1 and USERn+2.

Let's say JAN_BRD_BASE is defined as USER1 then the following will be valid:

        - USER1 defines messages from local users

        - USER2 defines messages from remote users

        - USER3 defines network messages and command responses

Sincerely,

Peter
