Configuring with ADDTCPIFC
37
The following three parameters must be specified:
Line description name (LIND)
This line description name is the user’s name for the AS/400 adapter.
This name must be identical to the name entered when the TCP/IP is
configured on the AS/400, as described in “Configuring AS/400 for an
ASCII Printer”, below.
Resource name (RSRCNAME)
System-assigned name for the interface (for example, LN041).
SSAP
When *CALC is used, the values of “12” and “AA” are entered
automatically as defaults. Verify that those SSAP values have not been
changed.
Configuring AS/400 for ASCII using TCP/IP
The next step in configuring the AS/400 for the IBM 6400 printer is to
configure the interface on the AS/400 for TCP/IP
NOTE: The AS/400 interface is not the IBM NIC. Do not set the AS/400
interface address to the same address as the NIC IP address.
Also do not add the NIC to the AS/400 TCP/IP interface list.
Configuring with ADDTCPIFC
ADDTCPIFC is used to add a TCP/IP interface to AS/400. This step
configures the AS/400 for attachments to a TCP/IP network.
At the AS/400 command line, enter the following command:
ADDTCPIFC INTNETADR (’9.99.15.188’) LIND(ETHLAN)
SUBNETMASK(’255.255.255.0’)
Your completed screen should look like Figure 6.
