Matching AS/400 mode and class-of-service description parameters for
a host system
You must match host system communications configuration parameters with AS/400 values. A description
of the AS/400 values are in the following table. For information about configuring host systems, see the
manuals VTAM Installation and Resource Definition, SC23-0111, and Network Control Program Resource
Definition Reference, SC30-3254.
You can specify some host system parameters on multiple definition statements, such as the GROUP,
LINE, PU, and LU. The following table lists only the lowest level definition statement that is used by the
host system.
To configure an AS/400 to a host system:
v See “Examples: Connecting AS/400 to a host system” on page 26 for an example of connecting an
AS/400 to a host system.
v Use the following table for the mode and class-of-service description parameter.
