Names the adjacent subarea and optionally specifies:
  • The transmission group (TG) number for the associated explicit routes originating in the host and leading to the destination subarea.
  • The NCP’s transmission group flow-control thresholds. The maximum value for any threshold is 4194304.

    NCP maximum values for transmission group flow-control thresholds differ depending on NCP release. The maximum for NCP V6R2 and earlier is 524288. The maximum for NCP V6R3 and later is 4194304. Do not use a value greater than 524288 when doing NCP dynamic path updates unless the NCP release is V6R3 or later.

At least one ER must be specified on the PATH definition statement. You can change the ER value when the ER is deactivated or undefined.
adjsub
Specifies the subarea number (in decimal) of the adjacent subarea to which traffic should be sent from the host subarea for the explicit route being defined.
tgn
Specifies an optional transmission group number for the explicit route being defined.
lo
Specifies the NCP’s transmission group flow-control threshold for low priorities.
med
Specifies the NCP’s transmission group flow-control threshold for medium priorities.
hi
Specifies the NCP’s transmission group flow-control threshold for high priorities.
tot
Specifies the NCP’s transmission group flow-control threshold for the total traffic in characters.
