AS/400 IBM Network Station: Techniques for Deployment in a WAN
Figure 36. TCP/IP Network Topology for Basic IP over Twinax Scenario
5.4.6 Task Summary
The following tasks are required to implement this scenario:
1. Define a TCP/IP address range to use on the twinax subnet.
2. Configure and start the IBM Network Station.
3. Configure an AS/400 IP interface as determined by messages logged in
the QSYSOPR message queue.
5.4.7 Defining a TCP/IP Address Range
For this scenario, any IP addresses can be assigned to the twinax subnet as
the addresses are not externalized beyond the AS/400 server. The IP network
associated with the AS/400 LAN card are not used. In this example, a
network of 10.10.10.0 is used for the twinax subnet.
5.4.8 Configuring and Starting the IBM Network Station
It is assumed that you have cabled the twinax IBM Network Stations correctly.
If you are replacing non-programmable terminals (NPT) with the twinax IBM
Network Station, you should notice the twinax address and port that the
original NPT was using. In most cases, you should be able to use the same
port and address for the replacement IBM Network Station.
If you plan to use both NPTs and twinax IBM Network Stations on the same
workstation controller, consider isolating the two types of terminals on
different ports. With the system console located on port 0, the twinax IBM
