SNA Node and Link Configuration
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 screen shown in Figure 2-11, “Token Ring Link Data
Screen.” Select this screen by pressing
[f1] (Go To LINKDATA) on the
screen shown in Figure 2-4, “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.
