Match iSeries system controller description parameters for a remote iSeries system

iSeries Prompt	iSeries Parameter	Remote iSeries Parameter	Notes
local area network (LAN) remote adapter address	ADPTADR	ADPTADR	The adapter address specified on the local system controller description must match the line description ADPTADR parameter specified by the remote system. If the iSeries system uses an Ethernet line through an 8209 LAN Bridge, see "Appendix C: Local Area Network Addressing Considerations" in the Communications Configuration book.
Connection number	CNNNBR	NETADR	For X.25 switched virtual circuits (SVCs), the CNNNBR parameter on the local system controller description must match the NETADR parameter on the line description for the remote system.
Connection password	CNNPWD	CNNPWD	For switched virtual circuits (SVCs), passwords specified for each system must match.
Destination service access point	DSAP	SSAP	DSAP specified for the local iSeries server must match the SSAP specified in the remote iSeries controller description.
Exchange identifier	EXCHID	EXCHID	If used, the local iSeries controller description EXCHID must match the remote iSeries line description EXCHID. The first three digits of the exchange identifier, known as the block number, is `056` for the iSeries line. You can use the WRKLIND command to determine this value.
Initial connection	INLCNN	INLCNN	Values specified for each system must be coordinated; INLCNN(*ANS) must not be specified for both systems.
Link protocol	LINKPCL	LINKPCL	For X.25 connections, values specified for each system must match; both must be QLLC or ELLC.
Remote control point name	RMTCPNAME	LCLCPNAME	RMTCPNAME specified on the local iSeries system controller description must match the local control point name specified in the network attributes of the remote iSeries system.
Remote network identifier	RMTNETID	LCLNETID	RMTNETID specified on the local iSeries server controller description must match the local network ID specified in the network attributes of the remote iSeries server.
Data link role	ROLE	ROLE	The value specified for the local iSeries controller description ROLE parameter must match the remote iSeries line description ROLE value.
X.25 reverse charging	RVSCRG	RVSCRG	Values specified for each system must be coordinated.
Switched network backup	SNBU	SNBU	Values specified for each system must match.
Source service access point	SSAP	DSAP	SSAP specified for the local iSeries system must match the DSAP specified in the remote iSeries controller description.
Station address	STNADR	STNADR	Values specified for each system must match, unless both controller descriptions specify ROLE(*NEG).
Note: For asynchronous controllers (CRTCTLASC command), if the remote system controller description specifies RMTVFY(*YES), the local system controller description must specify a local identifier (LCLID parameter) and local location name (LCLLOCNAME parameter). The remote system must also create a configuration list with the LCLID and LCLLOCNAME values from the local system controller description.

Remote iSeries Parameter

Notes

local area network (LAN) remote adapter address

ADPTADR

The adapter address specified on the local system controller description must match the line description ADPTADR parameter specified by the remote system.

If the iSeries system uses an Ethernet line through an 8209 LAN Bridge, see "Appendix C: Local Area Network Addressing Considerations" in the Communications Configuration Link to PDF book.

Connection number

CNNNBR

NETADR

For X.25 switched virtual circuits (SVCs), the CNNNBR parameter on the local system controller description must match the NETADR parameter on the line description for the remote system.

Connection password

CNNPWD

For switched virtual circuits (SVCs), passwords specified for each system must match.

Destination service access point

DSAP

SSAP

DSAP specified for the local iSeries server must match the SSAP specified in the remote iSeries controller description.

Exchange identifier

EXCHID

If used, the local iSeries controller description EXCHID must match the remote iSeries line description EXCHID. The first three digits of the exchange identifier, known as the block number, is 056 for the iSeries line. You can use the WRKLIND command to determine this value.

Initial connection

INLCNN

Values specified for each system must be coordinated; INLCNN(*ANS) must not be specified for both systems.

Link protocol

LINKPCL

For X.25 connections, values specified for each system must match; both must be *QLLC or *ELLC.

Remote control point name

RMTCPNAME

LCLCPNAME

RMTCPNAME specified on the local iSeries system controller description must match the local control point name specified in the network attributes of the remote iSeries system.

Remote network identifier

RMTNETID

LCLNETID

RMTNETID specified on the local iSeries server controller description must match the local network ID specified in the network attributes of the remote iSeries server.

Data link role

ROLE

The value specified for the local iSeries controller description ROLE parameter must match the remote iSeries line description ROLE value.

X.25 reverse charging

RVSCRG

Values specified for each system must be coordinated.

Switched network backup

SNBU

Values specified for each system must match.

Source service access point

SSAP

DSAP

SSAP specified for the local iSeries system must match the DSAP specified in the remote iSeries controller description.

Station address

STNADR

Values specified for each system must match, unless both controller descriptions specify ROLE(*NEG).

Note:

For asynchronous controllers (CRTCTLASC command), if the remote system controller description specifies RMTVFY(*YES), the local system controller description must specify a local identifier (LCLID parameter) and local location name (LCLLOCNAME parameter). The remote system must also create a configuration list with the LCLID and LCLLOCNAME values from the local system controller description.
