Section 5: Setting Up - IBM Mainframe (zSeries) AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e User's Manual
If the LAN media at the remote (Print Server) location differs from that at the
host location (e.g. Remote LAN = Ethernet and Host LAN = Token Ring), the MAC
address definitions must be modified, as outlined below:
Print Server Modifications:
The AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e Host MAC address (H1_MAC_ADDR) must be bit-
order reversed for each byte,
e.g. if the host address is 08005AB77D49 the converted address will be
10005AEDBE92
Host Modifications:
The required Host modifications are dependent upon the VTAM definition for the
Major Node where the Print Server definition is placed.
Case 1:
VTAM Major Node definition is a Switched Major Node.
The MAC address of the AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e must be bit-order reversed in
the PATH entry. AnAXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e with a MAC/node address of
00408C1B06D4 will be defined using the MAC/node address 000231D8602B as
follows:
Case 2:
VTAM Major Node definition is a Local Major Node.
When using a channel attached controller as gateway to the host, the MAC
address of the AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e is configured in the gateway. The address
must be reversed, as in case 1 above.
