the *DIAL connection to a remote system will not see this name server
unless they are ended and restarted. In particular, you will need to restart
SMTP after establishing a remote connection in order to use a name server
that has been dynamically added.
Line Description:
7 Type the name of the line description to be used for this connection.
See “Step 1 - Configure an Asynchronous Line Description” on page 129 for
information about how to create or find the line description.
Autocreate Controller and Device:
8 Specify the default value of Y to have AS/400 automatically create the
controller and device descriptions for the line description specified in
7
(“Line Description”). If you specify N, you must specify a remote location
name (see “Remote Location Name”).
Notes:
1. The setting for this parameter does not affect and is not affected by any
of the autoconfiguration system values (QAUTOCFG, QAUTORMT and
QAUTOVRT).
2. AS/400 creates controller and device descriptions only if they do not
already exist.
If Start Point-to-Point TCP/IP (STRTCPPTP) is issued with
AUTODLTCFG(*YES), then when the point-to-point connection ends the
controller and device description are deleted. The next time you start a
point-to-point connection using this profile the controller and device
descriptions are created again.
However, if STRTCPPTP is issued with AUTODLTCFG(*NO), AS/400
does not delete the controller and device descriptions when the
connection ends. The next time the profile is used the previously
created controller and device descriptions are re-used.
Remote Location Name:
9 If Autocreate Controller and Device is N then this field must specify the
remote location name defined in the device description of the controller and
device description pair to use when Start Point-to-Point TCP/IP
(STRTCPPTP) is issued for this configuration profile. If Autocreate
Controller and Device is Y, then any name entered in this field is ignored.
Specify a value for this field only when using a specific controller and
device description pair that you created.
Notes:
1. The value specified is the same value specified for the Create
Asynchronous Device Description (CRTDEVASC) command
RMTLOCNAME parameter on the device description you want to use
when activating this point-to-point connection.
2. The controller and device description that you create must have status
VARIED ON prior to starting the TCP/IP point-to-point connection.
3. The TCP/IP point-to-point connection cannot start if the device
description is already in use.
