Remote LAN Address
This is the LAN address of the host node. Local and Remote is always from the viewpoint of
the LINCS node.
Enter a 12-digit hex number for the LAN address. Make sure that the LAN address and SAP
combination you enter is unique for this line.
Secondary Station Address
Enter a 2-digit hex number, provided by the host systems programmer. It is the X.25 term for
SNA PU address, as seen at the SNA host. Make sure that the PU address you enter is unique
for this line.
XID
For X.25 lines, enter an 8-digit hexadecimal number, which identifies this control unit to the
(SNA) host. It is used for XID response and in reporting maintenance statistics. Your system
programmer should supply you with the value. The default is 01700000.

When displaying the 3270 Host Classes panel, PF-4 Add allows defining 16 additional Host
Classes. LINCS supports a total of sixty-four 3270 Host Classes. PF-5 deletes the 16 Host
Classes of the displayed panel; i.e. if PF-5 is pressed while host classes 1-16 are displayed
they will be deleted, classes 17-32 will remain. This panel will be displayed if any 3270 Host
Circuits have been configured.
Class
This is a protected field which assigns a class number. This number is used on the Device
Profile Assignments panel in order to preconnect to a specific 3270 Host Class.
Host
This is a toggle field indicating which 3270 host is assigned to the class. To disable a class,
toggle to NONE.
The 2-digit Host Circuit number (00 through 7F) will be shown if you have not specified a
Host Identifier on the Host Circuit panel for that host.
