Chapter 8 Configuring On AS/400 As An IPDS Printer
Configuring An AS/400 TCP/IP Interface With
ADDTCPIFC
NOTE: Do not enter the IP address of the NIC. Do not set the AS/400 interface address to the same address as the NIC IP address. Also, do not add the NIC to the AS/400 TCP/IP interface list.
Configuring An Interface For Ethernet
ADDTCPIFC is used to add a TCP/IP interface to AS/400. This step configures the AS/400 for attachments to a TCP/IP network.
1. At the AS/400 command line, enter the following command:
ADDTCPIFC INTNETADR ('9.99.15.188') LIND(ETHLAN)
SUBNETMASK('255.255.255.0')
2. Your completed screen should look like Figure 40.
System: BLDD60
Internet address: | 9.99.15.188 |
Subnet mask: | 255.255.255.0 |
Line description: | ETHLAN |
Line type: | *ELAN |
Interface status: | Inactive |
Type of service: | *NORMAL |
Maximum transmission unit: | *LIND |
Automatic start: | *YES |
