<div><p>Creating an Ethernet line description is the first step in configuring i5/OS<sup>®</sup> to

<div class="p">This configuration allows a logical partition to communicate to an i5/OS partition

complete the following steps:</div>

<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>At the i5/OS command line, type <kbd class="userinput">WRKHDWRSC
|
||
|
|
*CMN</kbd> and press <span class="uicontrol">Enter</span>.</span></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>From the Work with Communication Resources display, select option <span class="uicontrol">7</span> (Display
|
||
|
|
Resource Detail) next to the appropriate virtual Ethernet port. </span> The
|
||
|
|
Ethernet port identified as a 268C is the virtual Ethernet resource. There
|
||
|
|
will be one for each virtual Ethernet that is connected to the partition.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>From the Display Resource Detail display, scroll down to find the

|
port address. </span> The port address corresponds to the virtual Ethernet

you selected during the configuration of the partition.</li>

|
||
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>From the Work with Configuration Descriptions display, select option <span class="uicontrol">1</span> (Create)
