Configuring the SNA Node and Link
Token Ring Link Data Screen
Once you have specified the PU and LU information, you are ready to
configure the communications link parameters for the token ring link.
You do this on the “SNA Node Configuration: Token Ring Link Data”
screen as shown n Figure 2-10. Select this screen by pressing
[f1] (Go To
LINKDATA) on the “SNA Node Configuration: PU Data” screen. (You can
go directly to this screen from any screen by typing
@SNANODE.
nodename
.LINKDATA in the command window and pressing
[ENTER]).
CAUTION
If the Token Ring 3000/iX Network Link product is already configured
for the Network Services (NS) subsystem, the values that initially
appear in the Token Ring Link Data screen fields reflect the NS
configuration. If the same token ring card is being used for both NS and
SNA communications, certain fields in the Token Ring Link Data
screen must match the values of the NS token ring link configuration.
(See the following field descriptions.)
If the Link Name configured for an SNA token ring link is the same as
the name of an NS token ring link, make sure that the values of these
fields in the SNA token ring link configuration match the NS token ring
link configuration; otherwise, the SNA token ring link configuration
will change the NS token ring link configuration. If more than one
token ring link is configured for NS, the values of the first configured
token ring link appear.
