Implementing an APPN network z/OS Communications Server: SNA Network Implementation Guide SC27-3672-01 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
An APPN network contains network nodes and end nodes connected by APPN connections. VTAM® can be coded as either a network node or an end node. Configuring VTAM for APPN is optional. To configure VTAM as an APPN node, select the characteristics of the node and define the resources of that node to VTAM. The HOSTSA, NODETYPE, and SACONNS start options are used to determine what type of node VTAM will be. Table 1 shows how these start options are defined for the different types of nodes.
By coding the NODETYPE start option, you specify a node as an APPN
node. After NODETYPE is coded, the following start options default
to the values needed to enable APPN connections.
