Change the network attributes (Purchasing)

The Change Network Attributes (CHGNETA) command is used to set the attributes for the system within the network. The following attributes are defined for PURCH and these attributes apply to all connections in the network for this end node:

LCLNETID(APPN)

Specifies that the name of the local network is APPN. The remote locations (MPLS in the example, NN2 in the figure) must specify this name as the remote network identifier (RMTNETID) on the CRTCTLAPPC command.

LCLCPNAME(PURCH)

Specifies that the name assigned to the local control point is PURCH. The remote systems specify this name as the remote control point name (RMTCPNAME) on the CRTCTLAPPC command.

LCLLOCNAME(PURCH)

The default local location name is PURCH. This name will be used for the device description that is created by the APPN support.

NODETYPE(*ENDNODE)

Specifies that the local system (PURCH) is an APPN end node.

NETSERVER((APPN MPLS))

Specifies that network node MPLS (NN2 in the figure) is the network node server for this end point. The MPLS node is in the same (APPN) network.
