12 iSeries Configuration,
TN5250
Setting Up TN5250 Print Queues on iSeries
Start with V5R1 or later and the most recent PTF level. The iSeries
should have TCP/IP installed, be fully configured, and functional.
To set up the TN5250 print queues, do the following:
1. Make sure the iSeries has sufficient resources to add additional
virtual devices.
2. Establish the IP value (not the dns name) of the iSeries.
3. Set the IP, subnet mask, and default router on the Ethernet
adapter.
4. Use a telnet session or web browser session to configure three
items per dest (logical Ethernet queue) for use as a logical
network connection to the iSeries.
NOTE: The three values (i.e., 192.168.168.34) represent the
iSeries IP in dotted notation and are the entries for the
iSeries.
The newly created TN5250 device/queue (i.e. pallet form, first
chair is alpha, 10 char. max) assumes the new name
“devicedesc.”
5. Determine whether or not to autoconnect (initiate connection
on power up or through Ethernet reset) the TN5250 device/
queue.
