Before bringing up the TCP/IP software, perform the following steps:
-
Load the MCP software using the Simple Installation program as described in the Simple Installation Operations Guide. CNS and all network providers on an application host must be at the same release level.
-
Install the networking software using the Simple Installation program.
-
Install the IPv6 and IPsec run-time keys from the IOE Encryption Option (if necessary).
After you install and configure the TCP/IP software, you are ready to apply the CNS and TCP/IP initialization files and bring up the TCP/IP software. To do so, enter the following command at the TCP/IP host:
NW TCPIP + <TCP/IP initialization file name>
where <TCP/IP initialization file name> is the name of the TCP/IP initialization file for that TCP/IP host.
If you do not specify the <TCP/IP initialization file name>, the system looks for a previously specified initialization file or the default initialization file, *SYSTEM/NETINIT, on the pack where the TCPIPSUPPORT library resides.
If TCP/IP does not initialize, see Troubleshooting TCP/IP Installation and Configuration Problems for troubleshooting information.
