Explanation of terms

 1   2   3 
See How to find network attributes for the details of how to find the configured values.
 4  LAN destination address
The hardware address of the iSeries system token-ring adapter. You can find the value using the command DSPLIND Line description ( 6 ).
 5  Subsystem description
This is the name of any i5/OS subsystem that will be active while using the queue manager. The name QCMN has been used because this is the i5/OS communications subsystem.
 6  Line description
If this has been specified it is indicated in the Description field of the resource Resource name. See How to find the value of Resource name for details. If the value is not specified you will need to create a line description.
 7  Resource name
See How to find the value of Resource name for details of how to find the configured value.
 8  Local Transaction Program name
WebSphere MQ applications trying to converse with this workstation will specify a symbolic name for the program to be run at the receiving end. This will have been defined on the channel definition at the sender. For simplicity, wherever possible use a transaction program name of MQSERIES, or in the case of a connection to VSE/ESA(TM), where the length is limited to 4 bytes, use MQTP.

See Table 34 for more information.

 12  Controller description
This is an alias for the Control Point name (or Node name) of the partner system. For convenience we have used the actual name of the partner in this example.
 13  Device
This is an alias for the LU of the partner system. For convenience we have used the LU name of the partner in this example.
 14  Side information
This is the name given to the CPI-C side information profile. You specify your own 8-character name for this.

 

How to find network attributes

The local node has been partially configured as part of the i5/OS installation. To display the current network attributes enter the command DSPNETA.

If you need to change these values use the command CHGNETA. An IPL may be required to apply your changes.
