The DEFAULT_SERVER parameter specifies the fully qualified CP name of the default iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ used by TN5250 clients connecting into the specified port without requesting a specific iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™. The iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ must be specified in an AS400_SERVER keyword. If DEFAULT_SERVER in this TN5250_PORT_DEF keyword is left blank, the default iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ specified as the DEFAULT_SERVER in the AS400_SERVER keyword is used. Only one AS400_SERVER keyword can be marked as the default iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ server.

The fully qualified CP name is a 17-byte character string. The fully qualified CP name consists of two parts: the network name and the CP name, concatenated with a period. The network name is a 1- to 8-byte SNA Type A character string. The CP name is a 1- to 8-byte SNA Type A character string. The fully qualified CP name is also known as the network qualified CP name.

This parameter is optional.
