Enter On to turn the trace off. The default is On. Trace Size Enter the number of bytes you want to reserve for the trace table. The default is 1024 bytes. Page 1 of 5{ Save Diagnostics at Exit Enter Yes if you want to save the system diagnostics information when you exit SNA Links. Enter No if you don't want to save the diagnostics information. The default is No. Diagnostics File Name Enter the filename where you want to store the system diagnostics information. The default filename is \SYSTEM\SNALKS.DND. Page 2 of 5 Log File Name Enter the filename where you want to store all system console messages. The default filename is \SYSTEM\SNALKS.LOG. Pacing Enter the maximum number of request units (RU) (the pacing window) that the local LU can receive without sending a pacing response on sessions for the specified mode name. The range is 0 to 63. The default is 2. (WARNING: If pacing is set to 0, out-of-buffer conditions can occur in the SNA network. To avoid this, you will need to tune your SNA network.) Page 3 of 5 RU Size Enter the range of maximum request unit (RU) sizes that may be used by sessions that have this mode name. The range is 1 to 4096. The default is 768 bytes. Transport Time Enter the number of ticks allotted for a packet to travel through the SNA network. A tick is 1/18 of a second. The range is 1 to 254. The default is 18. Page 4 of 5 Advanced Options This option is for use by Novell Technical Support only. Page 5 of 5 DLC Type Select Token Ring or SDLC, depending on your connection to the host.k NetWare for SAA SDLC Profile Configuration Enter these parameters from your completed SNA Links Profile Configuration Worksheet: SNA Network ID Enter the ID for the entire SNA network. This ID is specified in the SAA service profile. Peripheral Node Control Point Name Enter the name of the SNA peripheral node control point (PNCP). In SNA terms, the server is a peripheral node. This node contains a software entity called a control point that controls the resources of the SNA peripheral node. Page 1 of 6 SDLC Control Unit Address Enter the two-digit hexadecimal address sometimes known as the PU address. This number corresponds to the ADDR= field in the Network Control Program (NCP) customization, or to the STNADR station address for the AS/400 in the controller description. The default is C1. SDLC Adapter Type Select Primary or Alternate. Choose the setting that corresponds to the adapter type setting specified when the adapter and driver were installed. Page 2 of 6 SDLC Encoding Option for Interface Board Select NRZ or NRZI. (Note that the parameter in VTAM and the Network Control Program (NCP) is NRZI= YEs or No, where No means NRZ.) In an AS/400 line description, the default is NRZI= YEs. NRZI ensures a signal change every six bits to guarantee bit synchronization, regardless of record length. Page 3 of 6# Connection Type Select Non-Switched or Switched. Choose the appropriate line type. (A switched line is usually a standard telephone line going through a phone switch. A nonswitched line is a dedicated leased line.) Hold Request to Send (RTS) Continuously SDLC uses the Request to Send (RTS) signal to prepare the modem for transmitting data. Select Yes if you want the SDLC driver to hold the RTS high all the time, in order to provide faster communication line turnaround between the server and the remote host. Page 4 of 6 Block ID Enter a three-digit hexadecimal SDLC block ID. This number corresponds to the IDBLK setting in the Network Control Program (NCP). PUID for SDLC Connection Enter a five-digit hexadecimal PUID. This number is required for switched lines. The default is 00000. (This number corresponds to the IDNUM value in SYS1.VTAMLST.) NOTE: For the AS/400, the block ID is the first three digits of the EXCHID, and the PUID is the last three digits of the EXCHID of the remote controller. Page 5 of 6 PU 2.1 Link Station Role Select Negotiable or Secondary. This field specifies the SDLC link station role relative to the host link. Note that for a point-to-point configuration, you select Negotiable; for a multilink configuration, you select Secondary. Page 6 of 6 Server/User Name From this list you can configure a communication server or attach to a new server. You can also detach from the communication server to which you are currently attached. Press this key if you want to configure the highlighted server. Press this key if you want to attach to a new server. Press this key if you want to detach the highlighted server. Press this key if you want to exit the current menu. Session Configuration Configure Dedicated LUs Select this option if you want to configure Dedicated LUs. Dedicated LUs are typically used to restrict access to a particular application or to guarantee that a particular user will always be allocated a specific LU. The Dedicated LU specified using this option must not be previously configured as a Dedicated LU or included as part of an LU Pool. Dedicated LUs are specified with the Dedicated LU name. Page 1 of 3' Configure LU Pools Select this option if you want to configure LU Pools. An LU Pool is a collection of LUs that have been grouped together under a common name. The LUs in an LU Pool must all be of the same type (1, 2, or 3) and can be non-contiguous. LU Pools are typically used to allocate a collection of LUs for use by a particular group -- for example, marketing. LU Pools can be secured so that only the members of a specified group can access the LUs in a Pool. The LUs specified as part of the LU Pool must not be previously configured as Dedicated LUs or included as part of another LU Pool. The LU Pool is specified with the LU Pool name, and the LUs in the Pool are allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis. Page 2 of 3 Configure Range of Public LUs Select this option if you want to configure a range of Public LUs. Public LUs are typically unsecured LUs that can be used by any user. The LUs specified in the range must all be of the same type (1, 2, or 3) and can be non-contiguous. Configure Single Public LU Select this option if you want to configure a single Public LU. Public LUs are typically unsecured LUs that can be used by any user. Page 3 of 3 Create SAA Host Profile Select Yes if you want to generate an SAA Host Profile.
