Eiconcard Configuration 34
The protocols APPC/LU 6.2, SNA Function Management, and SNA Path
Control provide support for SNA communications at different levels. SNA Path
Control provides the lowest level of support and APPC/LU 6.2 provides the
highest. For the higher level protocols to operate, the lower level protocols must
be activated.
Select the High-Level Protocols icon to display the configuration panel.
APPC/LU 6.2
Advanced Program-to-Program Communication (APPC) is used by a wide
variety of transaction programs for program-to-program communications.
Eicon SNA Gateway provides complete support for LU 6.2. If your application
requires peer-to-peer connections, or if you are using the Eicon Networks
APPC Toolkit, you should activate this protocol. If you select this option, the
configuration program automatically selects the other protocols required to
operate APPC/LU 6.2; SNA Function Management and SNA Path Control.
SNA Function Management
SNA Function Management starts automatically when APPC is activated.
Many third-party terminal emulators interface with Eicon SNA Gateway at this
level. SNA Function Management also needs to be active if you define nodes
with support for LU 0, or if you use Eicon Networks SNA Function
Management Toolkit applications.
