However, if STRTCPPTPis issued with AUTODLTCFG(*NO), AS/400
does not delete the controller and device descriptions when the
connection ends. The next time the profile is used the previously
created controller and device descriptions are re-used.
Remote Location Name:
9If Autocreate Controller and Device is Nthen this field must specify the
remote location name defined in the device description of the controller and
device description pair to use when Start Point-to-Point TCP/IP
(STRTCPPTP) is issued for this configuration profile. If Autocreate
Controller and Device is Y, then any name entered in this field is ignored.
Specify a value for this field only when using a specific controller and
device description pair that you created.
Notes:
1. The value specified is the same value specified for the Create
Asynchronous Device Description (CRTDEVASC)command
RMTLOCNAME parameter on the device description you want to use
when activating this point-to-point connection.
2. The controller and device description that you create must have status
VARIED ON prior to starting the TCP/IP point-to-point connection.
3. The TCP/IP point-to-point connection cannot start if the device
description is already in use.
Modem Information:
10Youmust specify modem information if you are using a modem. For most
modems, you can select one of the entries that appears when you press
F4.
Note: Youcan change modem information by pressing F2 on the Add
TCP/IP Point-to-Point *ANS Profile display. If no modem
information is found, go to “Step 2 - Configure AS/400 For Your
Modem” on page 130.
Use Connection Dialog Script:
11The remote system that is dialing in must provide the information required
by the server connection script. The remote system can do this by doing
either of the following:
vUsing a matching connection script on its system.
vProviding the information interactively.
Note: Not all systems support the option to provide the information
interactively.
Youdetermine whether a script is used by specifying Y or N on this
parameter. The most common use of scripts is to exchange sign-on and
password information before a remote client may connect to AS/400
system. Another common use is to dynamically assign an IP address to the
remote SLIP client. See “NLS Considerations” on page125 for information
about the ASCII character set identifier used in scripts.
Allow IP Datagram Forwarding:
