TKE TCP/IP setup
TKE uses TCP/IP for communication between the TKE workstation
and the z/OS operating system. You should already have TCP/IP installed
and configured.
- If you do not have a domain name server running, update the Hosts
file with your IP address. TKE refers to the host by IP address, not
by the host name. If a domain name server (DNS) is running, then this
update is unnecessary as all hosts will be identified to the DNS.
- Update your TCPIP profile to reserve a port for the TKE application.
The example allows use of the port by the server named CSFTTCP. The port number must not start in column 1. TCP is the port type. CSFTTCP is the name of the started procedure. The 50003 is added to the port section and can be changed by the installation. The port number here has to be specified on the workstation when connecting to the host.
Any job with jobname CSFTTCP can connect to this port.
