Before you configure the DB2 Connect workstation, have your host-side administrator and LAN administrator fill in copies of the worksheets that follow for each host to which you want to connect:
To help you fill in the worksheets, Figure 12 illustrates a sample network that has DB2 Connect system and uses APPC to connect to DB2 for OS/390. The values shown in this diagram correspond to the Sample Value entries in the worksheet.
After you fill in the Your Value entries, you can use the worksheet to configure DB2 Connect. During the configuration process, replace the sample values that appear in the configuration instructions with your values from the worksheet. Use the boxed numbers (1) to relate the configuration instructions to the worksheet values.
In the configuration instructions, the (*) symbol denotes entries that need to be changed but do not have a representation on the worksheet.
