Considerations
NEXTSYS sys_number
is a required modifier that specifies the number (from 0 through 254) of the system
connected to the other end of the line. If you do not specify NEXTSYS, this
modifier defaults to an invalid value (255) and an operator message occurs during
the initialization of the Expand-over-SNA line-handler process. The path will not be
operational until you alter NEXTSYS to a valid value using either the WAN
subsystem SCF ALTER DEVICE command, or the Expand subsystem SCF ALTER
PATH command.
modifier_keyword
is the name of an optional modifier in profile_name. modifier_keyword is
added to the device record for this Expand line-handler process.
Modifier names in the PEXQSNAM profile are listed in Profile Modifiers on
page 11-16.
modifier_value
is the value you want to assign to the optional modifier specified by
modifier_keyword. modifier_value assigns a value to modifier_keyword
in the device record for this Expand line-handler process.
Default values and ranges of values for modifiers in the PEXQSNAM profile are
described in Profile Modifiers on page 11-16.
Considerations
Not all modifiers have associated values (for example, L4EXTPACKETS_ON).
The modifier_keyword and modifier_value parameters do not add the
specified modifier, or a modifier and its associated value, to the profile used by the
device. Use the ADD PROFILE command to add a modifier, or a modifier and its
associated value, to a profile.
Examples
In the following example, a device named $EXPSL4 is created for a single-line
Expand-over-SNA line-handler process. $EXPSL4 will bind to subdevice #LLUA on the
SNAX/APN line $SNAPA. (See Figure 11-3 on page 11-10 for the commands used to
configure #LLUA and $SNAPA.) The L4TIMEOUT modifier is recommended for
Expand-over-SNA line-handler processes.
