HOSTPORTS

You can specify this command only in the EQAOPTS load module. It cannot be specified at run time. To use this command in the CICS environment, you must be using the TCP/IP Socket Interface for CICS. For instructions on activating the TCP/IP Socket Interface for CICS®, see the z/OS® Communications Server IP CICS Sockets Guide.

You can use this command to specify a host port or range of ports for a TCP/IP connection from the host to a workstation when using remote debug mode.
