WebSphere MQ uses the SPX address of each machine to establish connectivity. The SPX address is specified in the following form:
network.node(socket)
where
The default socket number used by WebSphere MQ is 5E86. You can change the default socket number by specifying it in the the Windows(R) registry or in the queue manager configuration file qm.ini. The lines in the Windows registry might read:
SPX: SOCKET=n
For more information about values you can set in qm.ini, see Appendix B. Configuration file stanzas for distributed queuing.
The SPX address is later specified in the CONNAME parameter of the sender channel definition. If the WebSphere MQ systems being connected reside on the same network, the network address need not be specified. Similarly, if the remote system is listening on the default socket number (5E86), it need not be specified. A fully qualified SPX address in the CONNAME parameter would be:
CONNAME('network.node(socket)')
but if the systems reside on the same network and the default socket number is used, the parameter would be:
CONNAME(node)
A detailed example of the channel configuration parameters is given in WebSphere MQ for Windows configuration.
