TCP⁄IP hosts and networks use ASCII data notation; MVS™ TCP⁄IP and its subsystems use EBCDIC data notation. In situations where data must be translated from one notation to the other, you can use the following utility programs:

• EZACIC04 translates EBCDIC data to ASCII data using the translation table documented in the z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference.
• EZACIC05 translates ASCII data to EBCDIC data using the translation table documented in the z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference.
• EZACIC14 provides an alternative to EZACIC04 and translates EBCDIC data to ASCII data using the translation table documented in Figure 1.
• EZACIC15 provides an alternative to EZACIC05 and translates ASCII data to EBCDIC data using the translation table documented in Figure 1.
