Re: SAVRSTLIB - how to set up the network over ethernet


Hello David,

Bugger! I forgot an important part for SNA over IP. You have to define HOST table entries (or DNS entries) for each system otherwise TCP won't know how route the traffic.

If you want to use the HOSTS table then add the following via option 10 on the CFGTCP menu or via the ADDTCPHTE command.

ADDTCPHTE INTNETADR('ip-address') HOSTNAME(SNA.IBM.COM.location.network)

where 'ip-address' is the target system IP address, 'network' is the SNA network ID and 'location' is the remote location name'). For example:

ADDTCPHTE INTNETADR('192.168.0.150') HOSTNAME(SNA.IBM.COM.SYSTEM150.APPN)

ADDTCPHTE INTNETADR('192.168.0.151') HOSTNAME(SNA.IBM.COM.SYSTEM151.APPN)

If you want to use DNS then you'll have to define a forward mapping table for the SNA.IBM.COM network and add the appropriate entries. For example:

; Name server
SNA.IBM.COM         IN   NS   your-name-server

; Hosts
SYSTEM150.APPN      IN   NS   192.168.0.150
SYSTEM151.APPN      IN   NS   192.168.0.151

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
