Considerations for configuring TCP/IP
for MVS
Following are some considerations for configuring TCP/IP for MVS:
• To specify a TCP/IP address space name other than the
default, TCPIP, code the following EXEC statement in the
appropriate PSF writer procedure:
STEP01 EXEC PGM=APSPPIEP,
PARM=(,,,,tcpip_name), REGION=4096K
where tcp/ip_name is the name of the TCP/IP address space.
If this parameter is not coded, PSF uses the default name,
TCPIP. (For a full description of the PARM parameter, refer to
Print Services Facility/MVS: Diagnosis Guide and Reference.)
