TCP/IP and NAMED Devices

[bvining@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Vernon,

That section of the note only applies to WSG support enhancements and
not to general Telnet.  To select a Device Name is available in OS/400
via the V3R2 and V3R7 PTFs listed in the original note; though again
the client must change in order to send to OS/400 the correct options.
Currently only the Network Terminal provides this client support.

>>UPDATE: IP ADDRESS SUPPORT IN WSG
>>---------------------------------
>>WSG sessions can now support retrieval of the client IP address
>>via the QDCRDEVD System API.  WSG will set the IP address of the
>>client into the virtual terminal device allocated to the client,
>>for retrieval by any AS/400 application.  Calling the QDCRDEVD
>>System API using the virtual terminal device name allocated will
>>return the IP address of the client to the application.
>>
>>This support requires 1 WSG PTF and 1 Telnet PTF for V4R1, with
>>subsequent releases having support in the base code.  In addition,
>>the Telnet PTF's listed above are also required.
