Step 1: Add the SNAX/APN Line

At least one SNAX/APN line must be configured and started at each end of the SNA

network through which the Expand-over-SNA line-handler process will communicate.

You use the SNAX/APN subsystem SCF ADD LINE command to configure a

SNAX/APN line. For example, this command creates a SNAX/APN line called

$SNAPA:

-> ADD LINE $SNAPA, RECSIZE 524, MAXPUS 1, MAXLUS 30, &

STATION PRIMARY, MAXLOCALLUS 10, POLLINT 0.01

For details about configuring SNAX/APN lines, see the SNAX/XF and SNAX/APN

Configuration and Management Manual. SCF ADD LINE attributes are also described

in the SNAX/XF and SNAX/APN Configuration and Management Manual.

Considerations

POLLINT should be set to the minimum value (0.01 seconds) on Synchronous Data

Link Control (SDLC) lines for best performance.

Note. These instructions assume that a SNAX/APN line-handler process has already been

created. To create such a process, you must add it as a device to the WAN subsystem. For

more information on creating SNAX/APN line-handler processes, see the WAN Subsystem

Configuration and Management Manual.
