After:
Through the clustering feature, all connections to the remote FEP-4600 are genned
exactly the same as if they were connected directly to the ESCON attached FEP-4600.
The FEP-4600 configuration takes care of the necessary routing of the traffic from the
ESCON interface on the upstream side to the remote connections on the downstream
side.
Reference the appropriate chapters within this document for how to gen PU2, PU4, and
BSC definitions for the FEP-4600.
Limitations of the Clustered Connection
Clustered connections do not support dynamic connections from the LAN interfaces. This
excludes the use of the XCA/Switched Major node definitions method on the host side.
All LAN attached PU2 devices will require a local channel PU2 definition in the gen.
This also requires that each LAN attached device has a specific drop defined on the FEP-
4600.
