Chapter 6. Support of PU 4 Connections

6-6

707117-003

Scenario 3:
The third scenario makes use of a pair of FEP-4600s to provide an SNI connection
between two distinct SNA networks. In this case the connection makes use of encrypted
IP for the SNA transport. This time the two platforms are not Clustered, but function
independently to provide added security. Neither Enterprise Extender nor DLSw is
required or used, but the connection must be between two Visara platforms.



The type of definition used on the local host side will look the same, regardless of what
type of remote connection is being used. Each PU4 connection over ESCON appears as a
CTC connection to an adjacent SSCP.

Configuration for the actual remote connection is performed in the FEP-4600
configuration. For detailed configuration information, see the FEP-4600 Installation and
Configuration Guide.
