Configuring With ADDTCPIFC

145

The following three parameters must be specified:

Line Description (LIND)

The line description name is the user's name for the AS/400
adapter. This name must be identical to the name entered when the
TCP/IP is configured on the AS/400.

Resource Name (RSRCNAME)

The system-assigned name for the interface (for example, LIN041).

SSAP

When *CALC is used, the values of “12” and “AA” are entered
automatically as defaults. Verify that those SSAP values have not
been changed.

Configuring AS/400 For ASCII Using TCP/IP

The next step is to configure the interface on the AS/400 for
TCP/IP.

NOTE: The AS/400 interface is not the NIC. Do not set the AS/400

interface address to the same address as the NIC IP
address. Also, do not add the NIC to the AS/400 TCP/IP
interface list.

Configuring With ADDTCPIFC

ADDTCPIFC is used to add a TCP/IP interface to the AS/400. This
step configures the AS/400 for attachments to a TCP/IP network.

At the AS/400 command line, enter the following command:

ADDTCPIFC INTNETADR ('9.99.15.188') LIND(ETHLAN)
SUBNETMASK('255.255.255.0')

Your completed screen should look like Figure 37.
