AS/400 Prompt
AS/400
Parameter
Remote AS/400
Parameter Notes
Exchange identifier EXCHID EXCHID If used, the local AS/400 controller description EXCHID
must match the remote AS/400 line description
EXCHID. The first three digits of the exchange identifier,
known as the block number, is 056 for the AS/400 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 AS/400 system
controller description must match the local control point
name specified in the network attributes of the remote
AS/400 system.
Remote network
identifier
RMTNETID LCLNETID RMTNETID specified on the local AS/400 system
controller description must match the local network ID
specified in the network attributes of the remote AS/400
system.
Data link role ROLE ROLE The value specified for the local AS/400 controller
description ROLE parameter must match the remote
AS/400 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 AS/400 system must match
the DSAP specified in the remote AS/400 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.
For more information on AS/400 parameters, see the Communications Configuration book.
Matching AS/400 device description parameters for a remote AS/400
system
You must coordinate communications configuration parameters between local and remote AS/400 systems.
The parameters are described in the following table. This table shows those prompts and parameters that
must be coordinated when you specify device descriptions for the local and remote AS/400 systems.
To configure a local AS/400 to a remote AS/400:
v See “Connecting one AS/400 to another AS/400 system” on page 37 for an example of connecting one
AS/400 to another AS/400 system.
v Use the following table for the device description.
