<h1 class="topictitle1">Which LAN device initiates the connection</h1>
|
|
<div><p>In a Systems Network Architecture (SNA) environment
|
|
you can determine who initiates the connection request and who waits for an
|
|
incoming connection request.</p>
|
|
<p>To have your system initiate the connection, configure
|
|
the controller description to dial the destination. If no connection is established,
|
|
your controller description switches to answer mode (where it waits for a
|
|
device to dial into your system).</p>
|
|
<p>To have your system wait for incoming calls, configure the controller description
|
|
to answer the incoming calls. You use <a href="rzajudialmode.htm#dial_mode">dial
|
|
mode</a> to make connection requests and <a href="rzajuanswermode.htm#answer_mode">answer
|
|
mode</a> to have the system wait for incoming connection requests. You
|
|
specify one of these modes through the Initial connection (INLCNN) field of
|
|
the controller description.</p>

<div>
|
|
<ul class="ullinks">
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajudialmode.htm">Dial mode (SNA)</a></strong><br />
|
|
You use dial mode (that is used by Systems Network Architecture (SNA) controller descriptions) to send a connection request to a remote device.</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajuanswermode.htm">Answer mode (SNA)</a></strong><br />
|
|
If you specify answer mode, the input/output adapter (IOA) cannot send connection requests, but can respond to incoming connection-requests.</li>
