This document describes the steps for installing the Natural Net Data
Interface NATNETTO on z/OS.
For operational information, see Natural Net Data Interface NATNETTO in the Operations documentation.
When used in this document, the notation
vrs or
vr represents the relevant product
version (see also Version in the

Logical net data devices are configured with the IONET flag
byte, all other flag and value settings must be made as in the sample
definition given below. The module entry is VCNETTO, additional
device entries must be specified with WXTRN=OFF. The settings of
FLAG1, FLAG2 and RTAL must be according
to the example below.
If the data delimited option (NEDLM) is set, the delimiter
character which separates the fields in the value buffer can be set by using
the BEL keyword subparameter of the NTDVCE macro.
