<div><p>The correct line and controller descriptions will help you achieve
|
|
successful connections.</p>
|
|
<p>If you use SNA with a LAN protocol, this information will help you to successfully
|
|
connect to a remote system. The correct relationship between a line description
|
|
and a controller description helps to ensure connection establishment. A controller
|
|
description determines which line descriptions your server uses. Therefore,
|
|
you must ensure that the controller description refers to the correct line
|
|
description.</p>
|
|
<p>A line description also governs the number of active controllers that can
|
|
access it. By setting the MAXACT parameter number too small, you might prevent
|
|
the controller from accessing the server over the specific line description.
|
|
Therefore, you should set a large enough value to ensure the controller access
|
|
to the line.</p>
|
|
<p>The descriptions must also contain the correct information to ensure connection
|
|
establishment. The following information discusses further details on choosing
|
|
connections and identifying information:</p>
