OEM_DATA

Required?	No
Keyword Type	Hexadecimal string
Multiples Allowed?	Yes

The OEM_DATA parameter specifies four bytes of data in byte-swapped hexadecimal format for each of the following values:

Link type: This value is always 1 (X'01').
Remote Service Access Point (SAP) or DSAP: This value is always 0 (X'00').
Local Service Access Point (SAP) or SSAP: This value is always 0 (X'00').
XID retry limit (count): The exchange identification (XID) retry limit is the maximum number of times Communications Server will send XID commands to the remote station to establish a link without receiving an acknowledgment from the remote station in the time set by the XID retry interval. Valid values are 3 to 29 times.
XID retry interval (timer): The exchange identification (XID) retry interval is the time the link station waits for a reply to an XID command before sending another XID to the remote station. The number of times an XID is sent is based on the XID retry count. Valid values are 1 to 59 seconds.
Liveness mode: This value is always 0 (X'00').
Liveness retry interval (timer): Liveness retry interval is the time the link station waits before testing whether the link is still active. After the specified amount of time elapses, a TEST command is sent to the remote station to check if the link is still active. Valid values are 1 to 255 seconds.

Data in byte-swapped hexadecimal format is in reverse order of bytes, in case of IPv4 address. For example, the IPv4 address 9.68.43.100 in hexadecimal format is X'09442B64', but in byte-swapped hexadecimal format is X'642B4409'.

Note: Since the format of this data is byte-swapped, it is recommended that the values only be entered using the Node Configuration application.

This parameter is optional.
