Using the TCP/IP Administration Menu, Tcpadm | IBM SC41-5420-04

vAutomatic IPL

The Automatic IPL option determines whether the system automatically starts when the installation process has completed successfully.

When TCP/IP successfully installs, either the Work with Licensed Programs menu or the Sign On display appears.

6.Select option 50 (Display log for messages) to verify that you have installed the licensed program successfully. If an error occurs, you will see the message Work with licensed program function not complete on the bottom of the Work with Licensed Programs display.

To use TCP/IP, you must configure it after you have completed the installation. See “Configuring TCP/IP using the EZ-Setup Wizard” on page 9.

Using the TCP/IP Administration Menu

The TCP/IP Administration menu (Figure 1) is a starting point for the configuration tasks. To display the menu, enter GO TCPADM from the iSeries Main Menu.

Figure 1. TCP/IP Administration Menu

Following are descriptions of the menu options.

vOption 1. Configure TCP/IP: Displays the Configure TCP/IP menu. Use the options on this menu to configure your local server to communicate with other systems in a TCP/IP network.

vOption 2. Configure TCP/IP applications: Displays the Configure TCP/IP Applications menu. Use the options on this menu to configure the TCP/IP licensed program (5769-TC1) applications installed on your system.

vOption 3. Start TCP/IP: Select this option to issue the Start TCP/IP (STRTCP) command. This command initializes and activates TCP/IP processing, starts the TCP/IP interfaces, and starts the TCP/IP server jobs.

vOption 4. End TCP/IP: Select this option to issue the End TCP/IP (ENDTCP) command. This command is used to end all TCP/IP processing on this system.
