Specifying a SNAX/CM Application

Use one of the following SYSGEN attributes to specify whether to use a SNAX/CM

application:

CONNECTAPPL applname

This attribute indicates that switched connection management for the line is issued

using SNAX/CM (the SXCMGR process). Do not specify AUTOACCEPT when

you use the CONNECTAPPL applname attribute.

Note SNAX/CM must access SNAX/XF using an APPL object named applname. APPL applname must be

configured in the SNAX/XF service manager process with the APPLTYPE attribute CMAPPL (see the

next subsection for more information about SCF commands).

CONNECTAPPLANY

This attribute indicates that switched connection management for the line is issued

using SNAX/CM. Do not specify AUTOACCEPT when you use the

CONNECTAPPLANY attribute.

NOCONNECTAPPL

This is the default attribute, which indicates that SNAX/CM will not be used on

the line.

Specifying a Calling Operation

Use the following SYSGEN attributes to specify the type of calling operation

supported by the line:

DIALIN

This attribute specifies that the line only supports incoming calls. The DIALIN

attribute is meaningless unless the SWITCHED attribute is also specified. This

attribute is valid for X.21 switched lines, X.25 lines, and Token-Ring lines.

DIALINOUT

This attribute specifies that the line supports either incoming or outgoing calls.

This value is valid for either X.25 or Token-Ring lines. To override DIALINOUT,

use the SCF ADD LINE or ALTER LINE command to specify the DIALTYPE

attribute as either DIALTYPE IN or DIALTYPE OUT. The DIALINOUT attribute

is meaningless unless the SWITCHED attribute is also specified.

DIALOUT

This attribute specifies that the line supports only outgoing calls. This value is

valid only for X.25 lines and Token-Ring lines. To override DIALOUT, use the

SCF ADD LINE or ALTER LINE command to specify the DIALTYPE attribute as

either DIALTYPE IN or DIALTYPE INOUT. The DIALOUT attribute is

meaningless unless the SWITCHED attribute is also specified.
