The maximum number of CU definitions supported by the SCON-2XL is determined
by the model, number of ESCON interfaces, and whether feature activation disks have
been installed. The SCON-20L supports up to 3 CU. The SCON-22L supports up to 4

SCON-25L comes standard with support for up to 16 CU through one ESC interface,
expandable up to 32 CU through two ESCON interfaces. The SCON-28L comes standard
with support for up to 20 CU through each ESX interface, expandable up to 64 CU.
Protocol
The only supported protocol on the SCON-2XL for the ESC card is Non-SNA (and
Non-SNA with Channel Path Filtering). For support of SNA, APPN, or IP over the
