Defining the target listener for the NetBIOS connection

Defining the steps to be undertaken at the receiving end of the NetBIOS connection.

1. Define the NetBIOS station name using the MQNAME or LocalName value.
2. Verify the LAN adapter number being used on the system and specify the correct file using the AdapterNum.
3. Define the receiver channel:

   DEFINE CHANNEL (chname) CHLTYPE(RCVR) +
   TRPTYPE(NETBIOS) +
   REPLACE
   

4. Start the IBM MQ listener program to establish the station and make it possible to contact it. For example:

   RUNMQLSR -t NETBIOS -l your_station [-m qmgr]
   

   This command establishes your_station as a NetBIOS station waiting to be contacted. The NetBIOS station name must be unique throughout your NetBIOS network.

For the best performance, run the IBM MQ listener as a trusted application as described in Running channels and listeners as trusted applications. See Restrictions for trusted applications for information about trusted applications.

ENDMQLSR [-m QMNAME]

If we do not specify a queue manager name, the default queue manager is assumed.
