CVTIP6DEV       CONVERT IPv6 DEVICE                    TAATCPE

 The  Convert IPv6  Device  command converts  the  IP version  6  device
 information to  the IP6DEVP outfile  in a named  library.  TCP  must be
 active.   Only TCP/IPv6  network interfaces are  supported.  One record
 is written for each IP device.   The API QtocLstNetIfc is used.   For a
 description  of the  field  values in  the  outfile, refer  to the  API
 documentation for format NIFC0200.

 The model file is TAATCPFP with a format name of IP6DEVR.

 For IPv4 devices, see the CVTIPDEV command.

 A typical command would be:

              CVTIP6DEV   OUTLIB(QTEMP)

 The  IP6DEVP file would be created in  QTEMP and contain one record per
 IP device.

 Addresses in the outfile
 ------------------------

 Addresses are  in IPv6  format.   For details,  search the  Information
 Center for the  "IPv6 concepts" topic.  Use the  "IPv6 address formats"
 subtopic.

 A '::'  value will appear in some address fields.   This means a string
 of Hex  00s  exist.   A  value of  '::1'  means  a string  of  Hex  00s
 followed by a 1 exists.

 CVTIP6DEV escape messages you can monitor for
 ---------------------------------------------

 None.  Escape messages from based on functions will be re-sent.

 CVTIP6DEV Command parameters                          *CMD
 ----------------------------

    OUTLIB        The  library  in  which  the   IP6DEVP  file  will  be
                  placed.   The default is  *LIBL.  If  the IP6DEVP file
                  does  not already exist, a  library must be specified.

    OUTMBR        The member  of the IP6DEVP  file to be  used.  If  the
                  member does  not exist, it  is added.  The  default is
                  IP6DEVP.

    REPLACE       A  *YES/*NO  value for  whether the  member  should be
                  cleared before writing records  into it.  The  default
                  is *YES.

                  *NO  may  be  specified to  add  records  to  existing
                  data.
