Specifying PUs
MAXPUS
To specify the number of PUs associated with either X.25 or Token-Ring lines, use
the SYSGEN attribute MAXPUS. The allowed value for MAXPUS can be from 1 to
254 when the SWITCHED attribute is specified for a line and the CONNECTAPPL
attribute equals ANY or
applname
. It is recommended that you specify the
maximum number of PUs possible.
SCF Attributes Use the following SCF commands to configure SNAX/XF to work with SNAX/CM.
Specifying Access to SNAX/CM
To specify access to SNAX/CM, use a new value, CMAPPL (#10), with the SCF APPL
attribute APPLTYPE, as follows:
ADD APPL $SSCP.#
applname
, APPLTYPE CMAPPL
[, PASSWORD "
password
" ]
Adding or Altering Line Attributes
Following is the syntax to implement SNAX/CM using SNAX/XF lines using the SCF
ADD LINE command:
ADD LINE
line-name
, CONNECTAPPL { OFF |
applname
| ANY },
DIALTYPE { IN | INOUT | OUT }, SWITCHED ON, MAXPUS
n
,
AUTOACCEPT OFF, ...
CONNECTAPPL
A new SCF LINE configuration attribute, CONNECTAPPL, allows or disallows
SNAX/CM operations. CONNECTAPPL allows both permanently subordinated
and switched floating PUs to be used for call-in or call-out operations for both
primary and secondary lines.
Note CONNECTAPPL is valid only for switched SNAX/XF lines. CONNECTAPPL applname or
CONNECTAPPL ANY cannot be specified for a SNAX/XF line when AUTOACCEPT ON is specified.
CONNECTAPPL NONE
indicates that a SNAX/CM operation will not be used for the line. Call-in
control is available only by an application issuing a CONTROL 11 request to
an LU on the line, or by specifying AUTOACCEPT ON by using an SCF ADD
LINE or ALTER LINE command. Call-out operations are not supported for
lines designated as CONNECTAPPL OFF. Refer to the SNAX/XF Application
Programming Manual for more information about CONTROL 11 processing.
