SNACONTROL AUTODIAL
Causes an SNA node's auto-dial modem to dial.
Syntax
SNACONTROL AUTODIAL;NODE=NodeName
Use
SNACONTROL AUTODIAL can be issued from a session, a job, a program, or in
break. Pressing [BREAK] has no effect on this command.
Parameter
NodeName Conditionally required. The name of the active SNA
node you want to cause to automatically dial. The
name can be up to eight alphanumeric characters long;
the first character must be alphabetic.
If only one SNA node is active, this parameter is
optional: If you do not include it, the active node
is caused to automatically dial. If more than one
node is active, this parameter is required: If you
do not include it, a list of all configured nodes is
displayed, but no node will automatically dial; you
can then reissue this command with the appropriate
node name.
Description
SNACONTROL AUTODIAL causes the auto-dial modem configured for an SNA node
to dial.
To use this command, these conditions must exist:
* The SNA node must be configured to use an SDLC link: SDLC must be
specified in the Link Type field of the "SNA Node Configuration:
PU Data" screen (see chapter 2).
* The SDLC link must be configured to use an auto-dial modem but to
defer dialing until this command (SNACONTROL AUTODIAL) is issued:
N must be specified in the Auto Dial field of the "SNA Node
Configuration: SDLC Link Data" screen, and a number must be
specified in the Phone Number field of the same screen (see
chapter 2).
Note that this command can be issued only after the SNA node has been
started.
Example
SNACONTROL AUTODIAL;NODE=IBMNODE
The auto-dial modem configured for node IBMNODE is caused to dial.
