Creating and Configuring Connections
You can create connections between Host Integration Server 2004 and your host computer with wizards or manually. Host Integration Server 2004 provides three wizards to help you install and configure connections to your host environment (HE).
The AS/400 Wizard, the Mainframe APPC/LU 6.2 Wizard, and the 3270 Wizard step you through configuring connection properties, creating 3270 display LUs and an LU pool, and assigning the LUs to the LU pool.
For information about the new IP-DLC Link Service, see IP-DLC Link Service.
The following procedures detail how to create connections:
Mainframe (3270) environments:
AS/400 (5250) environments:
- Creating a 5250 Connection Using a Wizard
- Creating a 5250 Connection Manually
- Creating a 5250 Local APPC LU
- Creating a 5250 Remote APPC LU
If you use a wizard to create your connections, most of the configuration information is added along with the criteria you entered when the wizard runs.
If you need to configure a connection manually, you may need to verify some of your connection information. For more information, see Important Connection Information.
