in conjunction with the APPN DLUS/DLUR function. The APPN DLUS/DLUR
solution allows the node to appear to VTAM as multiple PU devices, each
supporting up to 253 dependent LUs. A node wishing to provide TN3270E Server
services over a subarea connection for more than 253 clients simultaneously must
also appear as multiple PUs to an attached host.

Subarea connections are supported over the following DLC types:

v

Ethernet

v

Token Ring

v

FDDI LANE

v

LSA

v

Frame Relay

Note: Support for Subarea SNA connections for TN3270E Server services

eliminates the need for APPN in the host. However, APPN must still be
configured in the router.

A subarea-attached SNA node configuration with a device performing the TN3270E
Server function and appearing to VTAM as multiple downstream PUs is shown in
Figure 2.

See “Configuring TN3270E Using a Subarea Connection” on page 77 for a
configuration example.
