Note: If the host is AS/400, the following commands on the AS/400 will provide the
	information needed to update the Change LAN Host Information screen:
	v If the AS/400 operating system is less than version V3R6, use
	DSPLANMLD, Display LAN Information.
	v If the AS/400 operating system is version V3R6, or higher, use
	DSPLANMLB, Display LAN Media Library Information.
The following are the push-buttons on the Change Host Information pop-up window:

Figure 124 on page 195 shows the Change Host Information pop-up window for
APPC/VTAM hosts. This pop-up window allows information about a LAN host to be
changed in the 3494 con®guration. When this is done, the 3494 responds to the
host with the new con®guration data.
