8.1.2 C REATING A L INE D ESCRIPTION ON THE AS/400
If the print server and the AS/400 host are not on the same LAN segment, have
the system administrator verify that there is a route defined in the TCP/IP route
List. If there is not a route defined, use the AS/400 ADDTCPRTE COMMAND to
create a route definition.
Also, verify if a line description has been created for the line to which the print
server will be attached. If there is not a line description, have the system
administrator use the AS/400 CRTLINETH to create an Ethernet line description.
8.1.3 C ONFIGURING A TCP/IP H OST T ABLE E NTRY
This step is optional—IBM suggests that a host entry may be created in the TCP/IP
table. Have the system administrator use the AS/400 CFGTCP command to add
the host name and TCP/IP address of the print server.
