SNA LU Network Name (Printer on Preassigned Host)
If a printer or a printer port of a keyboard display is assigned to a SNA host by the
Host Printer Source field on screen CI22.1, type the 8-character name that the
assigned SNA host uses for this port. If this port does not contain a printer or the
printer is not assigned to either SNA host, this field is ignored (type
XXXXXXXX).
Otherwise, to make network management easier, it is recommended that this
8-character name match one of the following:
NCP
The name that is associated in the NCP generation with the LV macro
defined for this 3708 port
43xx ICA
The name that is associated with the LV parameter in the
VBUILD=CA macro for this 3708 port
4700
The name that is associated with the ALATERM macro for this 3708
port
8ys/36
Any 8-character name
8ys/38
The device description (DEVD) name that is associated with the
System/38 device description definition for this 3708 port
8100
The name that is defined in the NAME column in the adapter
configuration panel for a device attached to this 3708 port.
Note:
Printers must be assigned to only one SNA host.
SNA LU Device Number (Printer on Preassigned Host)
[00 - 31]
If a printer or a printer port of a keyboard display with printer is assigned to a SNA
host by the Host Printer Source field on screen CI22.2, type the number that the
SNA host uses to refer to this port. If this port does not contain a printer or if a
printer is not assigned to the host, this field is ignored. (Enter 00 for the SNA LU
Device Number.) Otherwise, this number must be two less than one of the
following:
NCP
The LOCADDR parameter in the NCP generation for the LU macro
defined for this 3708 port
43xx ICA
The LOCADDR parameter in the VBUILD=CA macro for the LU
macro defined for this 3708 port
8ys/38
The first two bytes of the device address (DEV ADR) parameter in the
System/38 device description definition for this 3708 port
8100
The address that is defined in the LOCADR column in the adapter
configuration panel for a device that is connected to this 3708 port.
Notes:
1. For the Sys/36 configuration, make this value equal to the port number in the
Sys/36 Work Station Definition menu. The 3708 supports a value of PL (3287
printer type) for printers in the Sys/36 port number definition fields.
2. For 4700 attachments, this value must equal the SEL parameter defined in the
4700 for this 3708 port.
3. Printers must be assigned to only one SNA host.
