Adding specific broadcast destinations

z/OS Communications Server: IP Network Print Facility
SC27-3658-00

About this task

If you specify more than one destination on the Routing Record Add Panel (NO OF DEST is greater than 1), it indicates that you are creating a specific broadcast routing to send the print data to multiple homogenous printers.

When you scroll forward, the system will display subsequent panels so you can enter information for the other destinations. NPF provides one Routing Broadcast Record panel (Figure 1) for each additional destination.

Procedure

Follow these steps to add specific broadcast destinations:

  1. Complete the HOST NAME/IP ADDR (Host Name or IP Address) and PRINTER NAME for the next destination on the routing and press ENTER to save the data for this destination.
  2. Press the DOWN PF key to scroll forward. Subsequent panels will appear for as many additional destinations as are needed. For example, if the number of destinations is 5, then this panel will appear 4 times to enable you to complete information about each specific destination.
  3. By pressing the UP PF key, you can also scroll backward to edit any data for these destinations.
  4. When you are done, press the END PF key or enter END on the command line to return.
