	AS/400	Host Definition
AS/400 Prompt	Parameter	Statement	Host Parameter
Maximum frame size	MAXFRAME	GROUP	MAXDATA
			Values specified for each system must match.
Remote control point	RMTCPNAME	VTAMLST	SSCPNAME
name			Required only if APPN(*YES). AS/400 controller
			description value must match SSCPNAME specified in
			the Virtual Telecommunications Access Method (VTAM)
			start options list (ATCSTRyy).
Remote network	RMTNETID	VTAMLST	NETID
identifier			Required only if APPN(*YES). AS/400 controller
			description value must match NETID specified in the
			VTAM start options list (ATCSTRyy).
Source service access	SSAP	PU	SAPADDR
point			For 9370/LAN only, the AS/400 controller description
			DSAP must match the host SAPADDR parameter.
			The SAPADDR parameter is a decimal value (4-252);
			the AS/400 value is specified as a 2-digit hexadecimal
			number.
SSCP identifier	SSCPID	VTAMLST	SSCPID
			Required if APPN(*YES) or if RMTCPNAME is not
			specified. AS/400 controller description value must
			match SSCPID specified in the VTAM start options list
			(ATCSTRyy).
			The SSCPID parameter is a decimal value (0-65535);
			the AS/400 value is specified as a 12-digit hexadecimal
			number, of which the first 2 digits are 05.
Station address	STNADR	PU	ADDR
			AS/400 system station address must be unique within
			host PU definitions. Controller description STNADR
			must match the value specified in the line description.

Matching AS/400 device description parameters for a host system

You must match host system communications configuration parameters with AS/400 values. A description of the AS/400 values are in the following table. For information about configuring host systems, see the manuals VTAM Installation and Resource Definition, SC23-0111, and Network Control Program Resource Definition Reference, SC30-3254.

You can specify some host system parameters on multiple definition statements, such as the GROUP, LINE, PU, and LU. The following table lists only the lowest level definition statement that is used by the host system.

To configure an AS/400 to a host system:

vSee “Examples: Connecting AS/400 to a host system” on page 26 for an example of connecting an AS/400 to a host system.
