Using the FICON
Global Settings
Wizard
You may use the FICON Global Settings Wizard to configure the
settings for FICON interfaces. These configuration settings are set to
default values when you add a FICON node. You can check the
settings by clicking on a FICON node icon. A node properties dialog
is displayed. The dialog has a Basic tab and an Advanced tab. You
should not change settings without first consulting with a service
representative unless you are very familiar with specific
requirements for your site, do not use the FICON Global Settings.
To start the FICON Global Settings wizard, do the following.
1. Select the FICON from the Tools Menu.
2. Select FICON Global Settings from the FICON submenu.
