<div><div class="section"> <div class="p">The controller description identifies the remote devices to which

||
|
|
the server connects. <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If you are running APPN, your server can automatically
|

|
create the controller description (suggested method) or you can create it

manually. Autocreate cannot be used with APPC.</div>

To create a controller
|

|
|
description to use with your LAN adapter, complete the following steps:</div>

|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><ol><li class="stepexpand"><strong>Optional: </strong><span>Type <kbd class="userinput">GO CMDCTL</kbd> to
|
||
|
|
find a list of controller creation commands.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Type the name of the command to use and press <kbd class="userinput">F4</kbd> (Prompt). </span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Type the name of the controller description into the <strong>Controller
|

description</strong> field. </span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Specify <kbd class="userinput">*LAN</kbd> in the <strong>Link Type</strong> field.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Press <kbd class="userinput">Enter</kbd> three times.</span> The
|
||
|
|
server displays more fields that might require the following information: <ul><li><strong>Switched line list:</strong> specifies one or more line descriptions that
|
||
|
|
your controller description can use. Enter the name of your Ethernet Line
|
||
|
|
Description. For more information about the relationship between the line
|
||
|
|
and controller descriptions, see Connect LAN devices. </li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Initial connection:</strong> determines whether the controller description
|
||
|
|
initiates connection requests (*DIAL), or waits for incoming connection requests
|
||
|
|
(*ANS). <p>If you specify *DIAL and want to adjust the polling duration or
|
||
|
|
frequency, you can change the <strong>LAN connection retry</strong> (LANCNNRTY) or <strong>LAN
|
||
|
|
connection timer</strong> (LANCNNTMR) field. See LANCNNTMR and LANCNNRTY for more
|
||
|
|
information.</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>LAN remote adapter address:</strong> contains the address of the remote
|
||
|
|
input/output adapter (IOA). To locate this address, see <a href="rzajyviewingthelanioaaddress.htm#rzajyviewingthelanioaaddress">View the LAN IOA address</a>.
|
||
|
|
If you are using the preset address of the adapter, consider using your own
|
||
|
|
LAN IOA addresses to minimize your reconfiguration work.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>LAN DSAP:</strong> contains the source service access point (SSAP) value
|
||
|
|
from the controller description that is for the remote device. For more information
|
||
|
|
about service access points (SAPs), see SNA connections to LAN protocols.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>LAN SSAP:</strong> contains a value from the SSAP listing of the line description
|
||
|
|
that is associated with this controller description.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
For detailed information about all the parameters and their dependencies,
|

|
|
see the chapter about communications controller descriptions in Communications
