<p>The Change Network Server Description (CHGNWSD) command changes a network server description. Parameters that can be changed include server software parameters and network protocol descriptions.
</p>
<p>More information about using this command is in the Communications Configuration book, SC41-5401.
</p>
<p>More information about using network server descriptions where <b>Server connection</b> specified *IXSVR and <b>Server operating system</b> specified *WIN32 for the <b>Network server type (TYPE)</b> parameter in <b>CRTNWSD</b> command can be found in the Windows environment on iSeries information in iSeries Information Center at http://www.iseries.ibm.com/infocenter
</p>
<p><b>Restrictions:</b>
</p>
<ul>
<li>You must have input/output system configuration (*IOSYSCFG) special authority to use this command.

</dl>
<p><b>Element 1: Route destination</b>
</p>
<p>Specifies the remote network or host that is being added. The user must specify all four bytes that make up an internet address though some of the bytes may be equal to 0. For example, a route to all the hosts on the 9.5.11 subnet is identified by entering 9.5.11.0 for the route destination. Used in combination with a subnet mask, the route destination will identify a route to a network or system.

<dd>A TCP/IP default route is being added. A default route entry is used by the system to route data that is being sent to an undefined network or system. Multiple *DFTROUTE entries may be specified. The *DFTROUTE entries are used in the order specified. If a particular next hop gateway on a *DFTROUTE entry is not available, then the subsequent *DFTROUTE entry's next hop gateway specified will be used. This will continue until a *DFTROUTE entry's gateway is found that is active or the list of next hop gateway values is exhausted.

<p>
<b>Note: </b>Any combination thereof means that you may specify a route, such as 9.5.0.0 to the hosts on the 9.5 subnet even though all 9.5.x.x addresses are class A network addresses.
</p>
<p>Exceptions:

Subnet mask specifies a bit mask that identifies to TCP/IP which bits of the value specified for the route destination compose the network and subnet portions of the internet address.

</p>
<dl>

The upper 2 bytes must designate 255 in the subnet mask, for example, the subnet mask must appear like 255.255.x.x, where x is determined by the user.

<h3>TCP/IP local domain name (TCPDMNNAME)</h3>
<p>Specifies the local domain name associated with the network server.
</p>
<p>A domain name can be a text string having 2 to 255 characters. Domain names consist of one or more labels separated by periods. Each label can contain up to 63 characters. The following characters are allowed in domain names:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Alphabetical characters A through Z
</li>
<li>Digits 0 through 9
</li>
<li>Minus sign (-)
</li>
<li>Period (.). Periods are only allowed when they separate labels of domain style name.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
<b>Note: </b>These characters are all invariant characters.
</p>
<p>Other domain name conventions include the following:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Uppercase and lowercase characters are allowed, but no significance attached to the case. The case is maintained as entered. The first and last character of the host name must be an alphabetic character or a digit.
</li>
<li>Try to limit your domain name labels to 12 characters because shorter labels are easier to remember.
</li>
<li>It is a common practice to use hierarchical names that allow predictable extensions for change and growth. Domain names normal reflect the delegation of authority or hierarchy used to assign them.
</li>
</ul>
<p>For example, the name SYS1.MFG.ABC.COM can be broken down into the following:
</p>
<dl>
<dt><b>COM</b></dt>
<dd>All commercial networks.
</dd>
<dt><b>ABC.COM</b></dt>
<dd>All systems in the ABC company's commercial network.
</dd>
<dt><b>MFG.ABC.COM</b></dt>
<dd>All manufacturing systems in the ABC company's commercial network.
</dd>
<dt><b>SYS1.MFG.ABC.COM</b></dt>
<dd>A host named SYS1 in the manufacturing area of the company's commercial network.
</dd>
</dl>
<p>In the above example, MFG.ABC.COM is the domain name and SYS1 is the short form of the host name.
</p>
<p>The COM designation is one of several domain names used when connecting the Internet. Some of the other domain names are as follows:
