Setting up the NETIUCV device driver
![]()
There are no kernel or module parameters for the NETIUCV device driver, but you might need to load the netiucv module, if it has been compiled as a separate module.
You also need to set up a TCP/IP service machine as a peer for IUCV connections from Linux®.
Loading the IUCV modules
If netiucv has
been compiled as a separate module, you need to load it before you
can work with IUCV devices. Use modprobe to load
the module to ensure that any other required modules are also loaded.
# modprobe netiucv
