Chapter 6. 3270 Host Profiles

Upstream Host Connection
Each upstream host connection allows you to specify LU ranges or classes of LUs. The
connection is defined by 3 fields. The first field is a toggle field which identifies the host
resource. The second and third fields are data entry fields. These values vary depending upon
the host resource which is selected.
3270 Host
This identifies a 3270 SNA Host Circuit. Additional fields allow you to define one or more
LUs to be redirected to a Down Stream Node. Valid LUs range from 02 to 254 decimal (or 02-
FE hex).
Whether the LUs are displayed in decimal or hex is configured on the General Options panel.
3270 Class
Identifies a 3270 Host Class. The number of LUs is optional, the default is 1.
Disable
No upstream connection.
Downstream Connection
This is the line that connects the downstream PU to the LINCS node.
Either PUID and/or Remote LAN must be entered on DOWNSTREAM CONNECTION.
Mapping is done based on the PUID, Remote LAN address, or both.
Link Profile
Toggle to the desired Link Profile. Only LLC-type Link Profiles are supported.
PUID
Enter a 5-digit hex number for PUID. The network systems programmer will provide the
number.
This number is the PUID of the DSN, and is used by the LU to PU Mapping feature to select
which LU to PU Mapping Profile to use. If no LAN address is configured, any DSN reporting
this PUID to LINCS will use this LU to PU Mapping Profile. Profiles are searched in order
for a PUID/LAN address match.
Remote LAN Address
An optional 12-digit hex number may be entered for the LAN address. If specified, the DSN
must have the specified LAN Address to access this profile. Each LAN address entered in a
LU to PU Mapping Profile must be unique.
