Defining switched SDLC subarea connections for NCP A04

The VBUILD definition statement defines the beginning of this switched major node (TYPE=SWNET).

The PU definition statement defines subarea 310, attached over a switched line that can be dialed into or dialed out from NCP A04. IDNUM=00003 must match the IDNUM at the other end of the switched line, as shown in example that follows.

For dial-out operations, the PATH definition statement defines the path to be used to establish a connection with the other subarea. GRPNM=A04GINN3 matches the name on the GROUP definition statement in the NCP major node for NCP A04 in Defining an NCP major node for NCP A04. The PATH definition statement also defines the dial-out telephone number (DIALNO=PATH21A-890-3333).
