Requirements

Quick Setup

Configuration

Before we begin configuring the AS/400 we must make sure that all the required componets are installed, configured correctly and running. Namely, there are two requirements, the licensed program for HTTP Server and TCP/IP.

Licensed Programs

The HTTP Server must be installed on the system. We can check the installation by reviewing the installed licensed programs on the machine. Enter the command GO LICPGM. A display will show all installed licensed programs, we will look for "5769DG1 *COMPATIBLE IBM HTTP Server". If it is not there it needs to be installed. Please refer to the Software Installation Guide, SC41-5120 for help to install the AS/400 licensed programs.

TCP/IP

A second requirement is to have TCP/IP configured and running before we can communicate with a network. Check if TCP/IP is Installed, enter GO LICPGM. Page down to find "#5769-TC1 *COMPATIBLE TCP/IP Connectivity Utilities" If it is not found then TCP/IP is not installed. To installed TCP/IP refer to
TCP/IP Connectivity Utilities for AS/400

To start TCP/IP, go to the TCP/IP Administration menu by entering the command GO TCPADM. Verify the connection by pinging the system on a command line using the IP address or system name of the server, enter any one of the two commands below
where - n is the IP address or systemname is name of the server.

PING RMTSYS(*INTNETADR) INTNETADR('n.n.n.n')

PING RMTSYS(systemname)

Check for a successful PING messages on the QCMD command line.
If this fails we should check the TCP/IP configuration. See manual TCP/IP Configuration and Reference, SC41-5420
