o

It automatically starts with TCP/IP by default.
o It can also be started with the STRTCPSVR SERVER(*SRVSPTPRX) command.
o It can be ended with the ENDTCPSVR SERVER(*SRVSPTPRX) command.
o The job name is QTOCRUNPRX, and it runs with the QSRVAGT user profile.
o Watch for TCP6405 error messages in the QSYSOPR message queue. The Reason code is an ECCMessage.

Example
