SNA Node and Link Configuration
Configuring the SNA Node and Link
File
For display only. The name of the configuration file.
Note that you can enter LU information on up to eight
pages of this screen. Each page contains 32 LU Name
and LU # fields You do not have to fill all of the fields on
a page before pressing
[f1] (Next Page), [f2]
(Prev Page), [f3] (First Page), or [f4] (Last Page) to
display another page of the screen for entering
information. That is, partially filled pages are allowed.
Once you have entered information for all of the LUs,
do one of these two things:
• Press
[f5] (Sort & Condense) to sort the information
from
all pages of this screen by LU Name. The sorted
information is condensed into full pages. Note that
this takes approximately as much time as validation
of the configuration file. After the information is
processed, press
[f6] (Save Data).
• Press
[f6] (Save Data). The information remains in
the order it was entered on the pages of the screen,
and any partially filled pages remain partially filled.
After the information is saved, if you need to configure
link information, press
[f8] (Prior Screen) until you
get to the “SNA Node Configuration: PU Data” screen.
Then, press
[f1] (Go To LINKDATA). If you specified SDLC
for the Link Type field on the “SNA Node
Configuration: PU Data” screen, you are placed at the
“SNA Node Configuration: SDLC Link Data” screen
(described next in this chapter). If you specified X.25
for the Link Type field, you are placed at the “SNA
Node Configuration: X.25 Link Data” screen (described
later in this chapter). If you specified TOKEN for the
Link Type field, you are placed at the “SNA Node
Configuration: Token Ring Link Data” screen
(described later in this chapter).
If you do not need to configure link information, press
[f8] (Prior Screen) until you get to the screen you need
next.
