GENERIC(protocol,generic-name)

The GENERIC control option is used to define a generic network name to the local host for a given protocol. Providing a generic-name for a protocol is not required.

Parameters that must be entered for GENERIC are:

protocol

Specifies the communication protocol whose specific network connection is being assigned as a generic network resource. Currently, VTAM is the only communication protocol that supports generic resources, and only within a sysplex environment.

generic-name

Specifies the generic-name to be assigned to the specific network resource as defined in the PROTOCOL statement. If this parameter is omitted, the generic-name previously assigned, if any, is deleted.

Example (console)
