You must enable the real-time interfaces within the TCP/IP stack and authorize the network management applications to the interfaces before the applications can obtain the real-time data.

Perform the following steps to enable the real-time interfaces and authorize the network management applications:

1. Enable the real-time interfaces.

   Use the NETMONITOR statement in the TCP/IP profile to enable the real-time interfaces and start the collection of the real-time data. See NETMONITOR statement in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference for details.

2. Authorize the network management applications. See Authorizing the applications.
