Configuring An AS/400 TCP/IP Interface With ADDTCPIFC
b.Subnet Mask
The Subnet Mask for this AS/400 TCP/IP interface (for example, 255.255.255.0).
c.Line Description
The name assigned to the AS/400 line description as described in “Developing Line Descriptions With CRTLINETH” on page 143. Each AS/400 LAN adapter will have its own line description.
Configuring A TCP/IP Host Table Entry
Although optional, it is recommended that you create a TCP/IP host table entry. Add the AS/400 name and the IP address of the LAN adapter to the “Host Table Entries.” Also, add the hostname and IP address of the printer to the list. You can access the host table entries function by using the CFGTCP command, then selecting option 10 from the menu.
You can also add entries to your host table for both the hostname and the fully qualified network name for your system. The entry name should match the name you configured for host and domain. For example, if your hostname is “RCHASM03” and your domain name is “RCHLAND.PTX.COM”, your fully qualified network name is “RCHASM03.RCHLAND.PTX.COM”. In your host entry table, enter both RCHASM03 and RCHASM03.RCHLAND.PTX.COM.
