the *DIAL connection to a remote system will not see this name server
unless they are ended and restarted. In particular, you will need to restart
SMTP after establishing a remote connection in order to use a name server
that has been dynamically added.
Line Description:
7Type the name of the line description to be used for this connection.
See “Step 1 - Configure an Asynchronous Line Description”on page 129 for
information about how to create or find the line description.
Autocreate Controller and Device:
8Specify the default value of Y to haveAS/400 automatically create the
controller and device descriptions for the line description specified in
7
(“Line Description”). If you specify N, you must specify a remote location
name (see “Remote Location Name”).
Notes:
1. The setting for this parameter does not affect and is not affected by any
of the autoconfiguration system values (QAUTOCFG, QAUTORMT and
QAUTOVRT).
2. AS/400 creates controller and device descriptions only if they do not
already exist.
If Start Point-to-Point TCP/IP (STRTCPPTP) is issued with
AUTODLTCFG(*YES),then when the point-to-point connection ends the
controller and device description are deleted. The next time you start a
point-to-point connection using this profile the controller and device
descriptions are created again.
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.
