Syntax Description

path

Hexadecimal value in the range from 0000 to FFFF. This value specifies the logical channel path and consists of two digits for the physical connection (either on the host or on the ESCON director), one digit for the channel logical address, and one digit for the control unit logical address. If the path is not specified in the input/output configuration program (IOCP), the default value for channel logical address and control unit logical address is 0.

device-address

Hexadecimal value in the range from 00 to FE. This is the unit address associated with the control unit number and path as specified in the host IOCP file. The device address must have an even-numbered value.

ip-address

IP address specified in the HOME statement of the host TCP/IP application configuration file.

host-name

Host name specified in the device statement in the host TCP/IP application configuration file.

device-name

CLAW workstation name specified in the device statement in the host TCP/IP application configuration file.

host-app

Host application name as specified in the host application file. When connected to the IBM TCP host offerings, this value will be tcpip, which is the constant specified in the host TCP/IP application file. When attached to other applications, this value must match the value hard coded in the host application.

Usage Guidelines

This command defines information that is specific to the hardware interface and the IBM channels supported on the interface.

CLAW devices are used to switch IP packets between a mainframe and a channel-attached router.

At most, 128 statements can be configured per interface because each interface is limited to 256 subchannels. Each CLAW device uses a read channel and a write channel. There is also a restriction of 64 unique paths.

A limit of 32 CLAW device configuration commands is recommended.

Duplicate IP addresses are invalid for nonbackup configurations.

Duplicate IP addresses are permitted if they appear within a backup group of only claw or offload interface configuration commands. All configuration commands in one backup group must specify the backup keyword.

You can use the path interface configuration command to specify a number of paths that belong to a backup group. In that case, a claw IP host backup configuration command is used that needs no path variable or backup keyword.

Examples

The following examples show two methods for entering the same IP host backup group information. The first group of commands is the long form, using the claw interface configuration command. The second group is the shortcut, using the path interface configuration command and a claw IP host backup configuration command.

Long form:

client ip lu

To define a specific logical unit (LU) or range of LUs to a client at the IP address or subnet, use the client ip lu command in TN3270 PU configuration mode. To cancel this definition, use the no form of this command.

client [printer] ip ip-address [ip-mask] lu first-locaddr [last-locaddr]

no client [printer] ip ip-address [ip-mask] lu first-locaddr [last-locaddr]

Syntax Description

printer

(Optional) Specifies that a client connection from the nailed IP addresses will be nailed to one of the specified LUs only if the client session negotiates a model type of 328x, where x is any alphanumeric character. Moreover, it ensures that a printer matching the IP address condition can used only an LU nailed as a printer LU.

If the printer keyword is not specified for any client statement that has this IP address set, all model types can use this range of LUs.

ip-address

Specifies the remote client IP address.

ip-mask

(Optional) The mask applied to the remote device address. Multiple client IP addresses in the same subnet can be nailed to the same range of local address.

first-locaddr

Defines a single local address to nail.

last-locaddr

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.


Usage Guidelines

This command is valid only on the virtual channel interface. Multiple statements can be configured for one IP address or nail type either on one PU or multiple PUs. But each LU can appear in only one client statement.

A client with a nailed IP address can request one of the nailed LUs via the TN3270 device name. If the requested LU is not available then the connection is rejected.

A client with a nailed IP address cannot request an LU outside the range of nailed LUs for its type (screen or printer).

A client with a nonnailed IP address cannot request an LU that is configured as nailed.

The command will be rejected if some of the local address are already nailed. If the local address are in use by other remote clients, the nailing statement will take effect only when the local address is made available.

To cancel the definition, the no client form of the command must be entered exactly as the client command was originally configured. If a range of local address was specified, to cancel this definition the whole range of local address must be specified. There is no way to cancel only one local address if a whole range of local address was configured.

Examples

In the following example, local address from 1 to 50 are reserved for remote devices in the 10.69.176.0 subnet:

interface channel 2/2
 tn3270-server
 pu BAGE4
  client ip 10.69.176.28 255.255.255.0 lu 1 50
 
   

In the following example, local address 1 to 40 are reserved for screen devices in the 10.69.176.0 subnet, and 41 to 50 are reserved for printers in that subnet:

interface channel 2/2
 tn3270-server
 pu BAGE4
  client ip 10.69.176.28 255.255.255.0 lu 1 40
  client printer ip 10.69.176.28 255.255.255.0 lu 41 50
 
   

In the following example, an attempt to cancel a definition is rejected because it does not specify the full range of local address and the second attempt fails to specify the correct nail type:

interface channel 2/2
 tn3270-server
  pu BAGE4
  client printer ip 10.69.176.50 255.255.255.0 lu 1 100
  no client printer ip 10.69.176.50 255.255.255.0 lu 1
  %Invalid LU range specified
  no client ip 10.69.176.50 255.255.255.0 lu 1 100
  %client ip 10.69.176.50 nail type not matched with configured nail type printer

Syntax Description

ip-address

Remote client IP address.

ip-mask

(Optional) Mask applied to the remote device address. The mask is part of the matching function that determines whether a client is governed by the nailing statement. The default is 255.255.255.255. Multiple client IP addresses in the same subnet can be nailed to the same range of local address.

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.


Usage Guidelines

If the pool is configured while logical unit (LU)s are in use, existing clients are allowed to complete their sessions. A pool name can be identical to an LU name. When assigning an LU, the TN3270 server searches the LU name space first for specific requests, such as connections that specify a device name on CONNECT or LU name in the terminal type negotiation. The request is assumed to be directed to the specific LU rather than to the pool. Make sure the name spaces do not clash.

Examples

The following is an example of the client ip pool command that nails the client at IP address 10.1.2.3 with an IP mask of 255.255.255.0 to the pool named POOL-1:

tn3270-server
 pool POOL-1 cluster layout 10s1p

tn3270-server

Starts the TN3270 server on a CMCC adapter and enters TN3270 server configuration mode.


client lu maximum

To limit the number of logical unit (LU) sessions that can be established for each client IP address or IP subnet address, use the client lu maximum TN3270 server configuration command. To remove a single LU limit associated with a particular IP address, use the no form of this command.

client [ip-address [ip-mask]] lu maximum number

no client [ip-address [ip-mask]]

Syntax Description

ip-address

(Optional) IP address of the client. The value for the ip argument is optional when setting the maximum number of LU sessions. If no IP address is specified, then the limit is applied to all clients.

ip-mask

(Optional) IP network mask for the client. The default is 255.255.255.255.

number

(Optional) Maximum number of LU sessions. The allowed value is from 0 to 65535.


Defaults

The default is that there is no limit on the number of concurrent sessions from one client IP address.
The default value for the ip-mask argument is 255.255.255.255.
In the no form of this command, the default value for the number argument is 65535.

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.


Usage Guidelines

This command is valid only on the virtual channel interface. An instance of the client (lu limit) command on a given tn3270-server is uniquely identified by the ip-mask and the logical AND of the ip-address with that mask. For example, if the command is entered as the following:

client 10.1.1.62 255.255.255.192 lu maximum 2
 
   

Then it will be stored (and subsequently displayed by write term) as:

client 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.192 lu maximum 2
 
   

The maximum specified on the command can be changed by reissuing the command with the new value. It is not necessary to remove the command first.

When you use the no client command, only the corresponding client lu maximum statement is removed, as identified by the IP address and IP address mask combination. You cannot use the no client command to specify an unlimited number of LU sessions. The lu maximum keyword is optional in the no form of the command.

For example, if a service bureau has 8000 clients and each client IP address is limited to four LU sessions, you will never need more than 32000 concurrent LU definitions even when the service is running at 100 percent capacity.

Examples

The following example limits all clients to a maximum of two LU sessions:

client lu maximum 2
 
   

The following example limits a client at IP address 10.1.1.28 to a maximum of three LU sessions:

client 10.1.1.28 lu maximum 3
 
   

The LU limit can be applied to different subnets as shown in the following example. The most exact match to the client IP address is chosen. Clients with IP addresses that reside in the subnet 10.1.1.64 (those with IP addresses in the range from 10.1.1.64 through 10.1.1.127) are limited to a maximum of five LU sessions while other clients with IP addresses in the subnet 10.1.1.0 are limited to a maximum of four LU sessions.

client 10.1.1.0  255.255.255.0 lu maximum 4
client 10.1.1.64 255.255.255.192 lu maximum 5
 
   

The following example prevents an LU session for the client at IP address 10.1.1.28:

client 10.1.1.28 lu maximum 0

The cmpc command defines the read/write subchannel addresses that CMPC or CMPC+ uses to connect to the host. The command corresponds to the definitions in the TRL major node on the host. Configure the cmpc command on a Cisco Mainframe Channel Connection (CMCC) adapter physical interface. Configure one read subchannel and one write subchannel. If CMPC or CMPC+ is configured on a CMCC adapter with two physical interfaces, the read and write CMPC or CMPC+ subchannels may be configured on separate physical interfaces.

The no cmpc command deactivates the CMPC or CMPC+ subchannel. If the TG is used for a non-High-Performance Routing (HPR) connection, all sessions using the TG will be terminated immediately. If the TG is an HPR connection, all sessions using the TG will be terminated if no other HPR connection is available to the host.

Examples

The following example configures a read and a write subchannel on path C020 for the CMPC or CMPC+ TG named CONFIGE:

cmpc C020 F8 CONFIGE READ
cmpc C020 F9 CONFIGE WRITE

csna

To configure Systems Network Architecture (SNA) support on a Cisco Mainframe Channel Connection (CMCC) physical channel interface, use the csna command in interface configuration mode. This command is used to specify the path and device or subchannel on a physical channel of the router to communicate with an attached mainframe. To delete the Cisco Systems Network Architecture (CSNA) device path, use the no form of this command.

csna path device [maxpiu value] [time-delay value] [length-delay value]

no csna path device

Syntax Description

path

Hexadecimal value in the range from 0000 to FFFF. This value specifies the logical channel path and consists of two digits for the physical connection (either on the host or on the ESCON director), one digit for the channel logical address, and one digit for the control unit logical address. If the path is not specified in the input/output configuration program input/output configuration program (IOCP), the default value for channel logical address and control unit logical address is 0.

device

Hexadecimal value in the range from 00 to FF. This is the unit address associated with the control unit number and path as specified in the host IOCP file.

maxpiu value

(Optional) Maximum channel I/O block size in bytes that is sent across the physical channel from the CMCC adapter to the attached mainframe. The range is from 4096 to 65535 bytes. The default is 20470 bytes.

time-delay value

(Optional) Number of milliseconds (ms) a host-bound SNA frame may be delayed in order to maximize the channel I/O block size. The range is from 0 to 100 ms. The default is 10 ms.

length-delay value

(Optional) Amount of SNA frame data in bytes the Cisco Systems Network Architecture (CSNA) subchannel accumulates before sending the accumulated channel I/O block to the attached mainframe. The range is from 0 to 65535 bytes. The default is 20470 bytes.

Usage Guidelines

The maxpiu, time-delay and length-delay keywords control the characteristics of host-bound traffic for the CSNA subchannel. The channel protocol used by CSNA allows multiple SNA frames to be blocked into one channel I/O block, reducing the channel bandwidth utilization and mainframe and CMCC adapter process utilization.

The maxpiu keyword allows you to set the maximum size of a host-bound channel I/O block.

The time-delay keyword instructs the CSNA subchannel to delay sending the channel I/O block for the specified time in milliseconds, from the time the first SNA packet is blocked. This can increase the network latency for an SNA packet by up to the specified time delay.

The length-delay keyword instructs the CSNA subchannel to delay sending the channel I/O block until it contains the number of bytes specified by the length-delay keyword. An accumulated block is sent to the mainframe if one of the following conditions is true:

Time delay expires

Channel I/O block reaches the length-delay size

Channel I/O block reaches the maxpiu size.

A time delay value of 0 instructs the CSNA subchannel to send SNA packets to the mainframe as soon as they are received from the network. A length delay value of 0 instructs the CSNA subchannel to ignore this parameter.

The no csna command deactivates and removes the CSNA subchannel configuration. It also deactivates all Logical Link Control, type 2 (LLC2) sessions established over the subchannel.
