filename
Specifies the name of the TCPIP host file to be used by SSH2. The file name will override the value of the
DEFINE =TCPIP^HOST^FILE parameter, which may have been passed to SSH2 at startup.
*
Indicates no host file will be set. However, any DEFINE =TCPIP^HOST^FILE passed to SSH2 at startup will
remain in effect.
Default
The default for this parameter is *.
Considerations
•
Use this parameter to pass the value for the DEFINE =TCPIP^HOST^FILE to SSH2 servers configured as
generic processes. (DEFINEs cannot be propagated to generic processes.)
•
An entry TCPIPHOSTFILE $system.ztcpip.empty has been added to the SSH2 configuration file for the
maintenance LAN (file SSHmCFG starting with H06.25/J06.14 to bypass DNS lookup. This solves a problem
of a 40 seconds delay when executing an SSH command against a CLIM (e.g. using CLIMCMD) due to
unresolved DNS lookups. Although this is a problem with the DNS configuration, the above workaround has
been put into place to prevent these delays. Name resolution delays are now detected during SSH2 startup and a
warning message will be issued.
TCPIPNODEFILE
Use this parameter as an alternative to setting a DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE.
Parameter Syntax
TCPIPNODEFILE filename
Arguments
filename
Specifies the name of the TCPIP node file to be used by SSH2. The filename will override the value of the
DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE, which may have been passed to SSH2 at startup.
*
Means no node file will be set. However, any DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE passed to SSH2 at startup will
remain in effect.
Default
The default for this parameter is *.
Considerations
•
Use this parameter to pass the value for the DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE to SSH2 servers configured as
generic processes. (DEFINEs cannot be propagated to generic processes.)
TCPIPRESOLVERNAME
Use this parameter as an alternative to setting a DEFINE =TCPIP^RESOLVER^NAME.
Parameter Syntax
TCPIPRESOLVERNAME filename
Arguments
