Configuring TCP/IP and VTAM for HPR/IP

BARR/RJE
BARR/NJE

The following TCP/IP and VTAM changes are needed to support HPR/IP (Enterprise Extender) connections. This procedure assumes you have z/OS and hardware on the mainframe to support Ethernet connections. These host changes are one time changes to your TCP/IP profile, VTAM startup, and XCA major node.

Configure TCP/IP

Define the VIPA device. When you configure BARR/RJE or BARR/NJE, this will match the Host name or IP address entered on the Link tab.

Configure VTAM

Specify the NETID. When you configure BARR/RJE or BARR/NJE, this will match the NETID entered on the Link tab.

SSCPID=06,NOPROMPT,              
CONFIG=02,MAXSUBA=31,SUPP=NOSUP,
SSCPNAME=BAR6CDRM,               
NETID=BARRSYS
,                   
TCPNAME=TCPIP

Setup a major node for the XCA. Only one XCA definition with a Medium=HPRIP is allowed for a given VTAM. XCA connections are used as the path to connect the remote Barr Enterprise Extender node to VTAM. You can use Autogen to create dynamic PU’s for each connection.

Because the sample VBUILD does not include a group, the XCA’s group is applied at connection initialization.
