   '-ADDR--=--link_station_address-'   

Specifies the 2-character hexadecimal representation of the 8-bit address of a PU on a non-switched line. Any bit configuration except X'00' or X'FF' is valid.

ADDR cannot be coded on the first PU under a frame relay line, but needs to be coded on the other PUs.

Note: VTAM cannot recognize a dynamically changed ADDR on the first activation of an NCP, even when VARY ACT,UPDATE=ALL is used. (Warm starts are considered initial activations.)

The resource resolution table (RRT) from the NCP generation does not contain ADDR information, so VTAM cannot recognize that the ADDR value has been changed on the first activation of the NCP. However, on changes to ADDR after the first activation, VTAM can compare the value in the definition statement to the value previously coded and recognize the change.

Note: You can code ADDR or DLCI on frame relay PUs, but not both.
