Create the controller description (Chicago to New York) in three-system
network
Because this is an APPN environment (iSeries system to iSeries system), the controller
is an APPC controller, and the CRTCTLAPPC command defines the attributes of
the controller. The example command defines the following attributes:
- CTLD(NEWYORK)
- The name assigned to the controller description is NEWYORK.
- LINKTYPE(*SDLC)
- Because this controller is attached through an SDLC communications line,
the value specified is *SDLC. This value must correspond to the type of line
being used as defined by a create line description command.
- LINE(NEWYORK)
- Specifies the name (NEWYORK) of the line description to which this controller
is attached. This value must match a name that is specified by the LIND parameter
in a line description.
- RMTNETID(APPN)
- The name of the network in which the remote control point resides is
APPN.
- RMTCPNAME(NEWYORK)
- Specifies that the remote control-point name (at NEWYORK) is NEWYORK.
The name specified here must match the name that is specified at the remote
system for the local control-point name. In the example, the LCLCPNAME parameter
on the CHGNETA command specifies the name at the remote system (NEWYORK).
- STNADR(01)
- The address assigned to the remote controller is hex 01.
- NODETYPE(*ENDNODE)
- Specifies that the remote system (NEWYORK) is an APPN end node.
