Cause
Site plans to install more than 64 remote ADAA (asynchronous) sites to communicate to a Embedded 4X host. What are some of the tasks?
Resolution
Plan! Consider which points are critical, then consider which sites are most critical (Do you really need every Message or Transaction to dial the Host immediately?)
At the Host, build the Configuration Profile with the link addresses of the network
Start I/NET. Set up your Network Configuration (If you are doing Docutrend, set this too!)
Give each Remote Site a Unique Name and Site Number (use the INET Help Screens!) (Please, don't leave each site at link 0.)
Set up each Site's Tap editor:
- When to Dial
- Who to Dial?
- What will cause a Dial?
- Link? (Remember, set it for what is needed and read the Help Screens)
Save the Site Tap configuration
Do frequent backups of your Host's files (This includes NETCON and SITEXXXX.SAVs)
