Use this dialog to select the FICON settings that you want to change.
If a specific interface type or node type is not present in the network,
its selection will be disabled. If there are no nodes that support
FICON Tape Write Pipelining, its selection will be disabled. If there
are no FICON interfaces present in the network you cannot run the
FICON Global Settings Wizard.

The selections you make in this dialog will determine which
subsequent FICON Global Settings Wizard dialogs are displayed.
For instance, if you check the FICON Tape Write Pipelining
Parameters box, you will later be presented with a dialog that allows
you to select the FICON interfaces to modify the Tape Write
Pipelining Parameters, and a second dialog that allows you to
configure the desired values for the FICON interfaces you selected.
