To support host communication over one of the supported protocols an appropriate program must be installed: For synchronous data link control (SDLC), no additional program is required. For token-ring data link control (TRDLC), install the IBM LAN Support Program. For X.25, install one of the following: IBM PC X.25 Communication Support Program Version 1.1 (5604-133) if the IBM PC X.25 Communication Adapter is installed; or IBM X.25 Interface Co-Processor Support Program (5604-154) if the IBM PC X.25 Interface Co-Processor/2 or IBM PC X.25 Interface Co-Processor is installed. The Real-time Interface Co-Processor DOS Support Program (5686-001) is also required for this configuration. For device cluster attachment data link control (DCADLC), for use with FBSI, no additional program is required. To use the TCP/IP Wide Area Communication Server NetManage's PC/TCP Network Software Version 5.0 is required. |
For external communication, SDLC, X.25 data-link, and IBM Token-Ring Network are supported. SDLC operates as a half-duplex secondary on a point-to-point or multipoint line. Leased and manually dialed connections are supported. For newer personal workstations the maximum supported line speeds are the same as those supported by the adapters. However, for older machines, the maximum line speeds might be lower. The X.25 data link control supports up to 20 concurrent virtual circuits. Network connection and virtual circuit parameters may be preconfigured. Also, the virtual circuit connection process and parameters can be controlled by an application. The token-ring data link control allows SNA host connection through a Token-Ring IEEE 802.2 session to support communication with the following controllers and processors: IBM 4702; IBM 3720/3725/3745; IBM 3174; IBM 9370; and IBM AS/400. The following adapters are supported for SDLC: IBM SDLC Communication Adapter; IBM Multi-Protocol Adapter; IBM Multi-Protocol Adapter/A; and IBM Asynchronous/SDLC Communications Adapter The following adapters are supported for X.25 packet switching network: IBM PC X.25 Communication Adapter (ISA bus); IBM PC X.25 Interface Co-Processor/2 Adapter (MCA); and IBM PC X.25 Interface Co-Processor The following adapters are supported for Token-Ring: Any Token-Ring Network Adapters supported by IBM LAN support program or IBM LAN client. |
