Configuring your queue manager to accept TCP/IP client connections

To configure a queue manager to accept incoming connection requests from the clients:

1. Define a server connection channel:

   1. Start the queue manager .

   2. Define a sample channel called NET.CHANNEL¹:

      DEF CHL('NET.CHANNEL') CHLTYPE(SVRCONN) TRPTYPE(TCP) MCAUSER(' ') +
      DESCR('Sample channel for WebSphere MQ classes for .NET')

2. Start a listener:

   runmqlsr -t tcp [-m qmnqme] [-p portnum]

   Note:

   The square brackets indicate optional parameters; qmname is not required for the default queue manager, and the port number portnum is not required if you are using the default (1414).
