CONTrol

Syntax

SET -APPN CONTrol = Enable|Disable [<type>(Immediate|Orderly)]
SETDefault -APPN CONTrol = Enable|Disable [<type>(Immediate| Orderly)]
SHow -APPN CONTrol

Default

Disable (default for Disable is Immediate)

Description

The CONTrol parameter enables the bridge/router to serve as an APPN network node. You can use the SETDefault command to initially enable the network node. When the network node is enabled, use the SET command to disable the network node without changing the configuration file.

If you plan to configure both APPN and DECnet on the same bridge/router, DECnet routing must be configured on the bridge/router before APPN is enabled because the DECnet configuration can change the bridge/router MAC addresses.

Values

Enable | Disable

Enable allows the bridge/router to serve as an APPN network node. If used with the SETDefault command, the network node automatically comes up when the bridge/router is rebooted. Disable stops the bridge/router from serving as an APPN network node.

type

Specifies the type of deactivation that occurs if you disable the network node. You do not specify the type when enabling the node. If you specify Immediate, the links are deactivated first, then the ports on the network node, and then the network node itself. If you specify Orderly, the node first is advertised as "Quiesced," then the session limits are reset on all modes. After all ISR sessions have ended, all endpoint sessions and all CP-CP sessions are unbound. The links are first deactivated, followed by the ports on the network node, and then followed by the network node itself.
