Configuring the RSVP agent

To configure the RSVP agent, update the configuration file to specify RSVP agent operational parameters using the LogLevel, TcpImage, Interface and RSVP statements. See z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference for detailed information about the statements.

To start the RSVP agent, you must first authorize the RSVP Agent using the security product. See SEZAINST(EZARACF) for SAF considerations for started tasks.

The following example is an RSVP configuration file. This example:

• Runs the RSVP Agent on the stack selected using the standard resolver search order, because a TcpImage statement is not configured.
• Disables RSVP processing on interface 10.11.12.13, while enabling it for all other interfaces.
• Disables traffic control on interface 200.1.1.1. This means that no reservations will be made on this interface.
• Allows a maximum of 50 active RSVP flows per interface.
