Developing Line Descriptions With CRTLINETH

For each LAN adapter on the iSeries, a line description needs to be created for the Ethernet Interface.

If a line description already exists, make sure the SSAP list includes default options “AA” and “12.” You must also know the LAN speed for the iSeries LAN adapter.

NOTE: To change a line description, you need to vary the line off before making the change. After making the change, you need to vary the line back on.

To change an existing line description, use the CHGLINETH command. To create a line description, use CRTLINETH.
