To configure an iSeries machine for TCP/IP:
-
Create an ethernet line description to identify the hardware resource name for the ethernet card:
-
Go to the hardware menu:
GO HARDWARE
-
Choose 1. Work with communication resources.
-
Create the ethernet line description, where CMN03 is your iSeries resource name:
CRTLINETH LIND(ETHLINE) RSRCNAME(CMN03) ONLINE(*YES) +
VRYWAIT(*NOWAIT) MAXCTL(40) ADPTADR(420000000000) +
EXCHID(05655555) ETHSTD(*ALL) LINESPEED(10M) +
DUPLEX(*HALF) +
SSAP((04 1496 *SNA)(12 1496 *NONSNA)(AA 1496 *NONSNA) +
(C81496 *HPR)) THRESHOLD(*OFF) LINKSPEED(10M) COSTCNN(0) +
COSTBYTE(0) SECURITY(*NONSECURE) PRPDLY(*LAN) +
USRDFN1(128) USRDFN2(128) USRDFN3(128) AUTOCRTCTL(*YES) +
AUTODLTCTL(1440) CMNRCYLMT(2 5) TEXT('Ethernet Port')
