110 • Configuring and Running SSH2 HP NonStop SSH Reference Manual
filename
Specifies the name of the TCPIP host file to be used by SSH2. The file name will override the value of the
DEFINE =TCPIP^HOST^FILE parameter, which may have been passed to SSH2 at startup.
*
Indicates no host file will be set. However, any DEFINE =TCPIP^HOST^FILE passed to SSH2 at startup will
remain in effect.
Default
The default for this parameter is *.
Considerations
• Use this parameter to pass the value for the DEFINE =TCPIP^HOST^FILE to SSH2 servers configured as
generic processes. (DEFINEs cannot be propagated to generic processes.)
• An entry TCPIPHOSTFILE $system.ztcpip.empty has been added to the SSH2 configuration file for the
maintenance LAN (file SSHmCFG starting with H06.25/J06.14 to bypass DNS lookup. This solves a problem
of a 40 seconds delay when executing an SSH command against a CLIM (e.g. using CLIMCMD) due to
unresolved DNS lookups. Although this is a problem with the DNS configuration, the above workaround has
been put into place to prevent these delays. Name resolution delays are now detected during SSH2 startup and a
warning message will be issued.
TCPIPNODEFILE
Use this parameter as an alternative to setting a DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE.
Parameter Syntax
TCPIPNODEFILE filename
Arguments
filename
Specifies the name of the TCPIP node file to be used by SSH2. The filename will override the value of the
DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE, which may have been passed to SSH2 at startup.
*
Means no node file will be set. However, any DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE passed to SSH2 at startup will
remain in effect.
Default
The default for this parameter is *.
Considerations
• Use this parameter to pass the value for the DEFINE =TCPIP^NODE^FILE to SSH2 servers configured as
generic processes. (DEFINEs cannot be propagated to generic processes.)
TCPIPRESOLVERNAME
Use this parameter as an alternative to setting a DEFINE =TCPIP^RESOLVER^NAME.
Parameter Syntax
TCPIPRESOLVERNAME filename
Arguments
