SNA Link/iX Node Manager's Guide

Chapter 1  SNA Links Overview 

HP 3000 users can communicate with an IBM SNA remote system by using one
of the Hewlett-Packard SNA link products:

   *   SNA/SDLC Link/iX (referred to as SNA/SDLC Link), which works with
       the SNA services to provide an HP 3000-to-IBM host or AS/400
       connection over an SNA network.

   *   SNA/X.25 Link/iX (referred to as SNA/X.25 Link), which works with
       the SNA services to provide an HP 3000-to-IBM host or AS/400
       connection over an X.25 network.

   *   SNA/Token Ring Link/iX (referred to as SNA/Token Ring Link), which
       works with the SNA services to provide an HP 3000-to-IBM host or
       AS/400 connection over a token ring network.


NOTE In this manual, the term SNA link is used when the information is true regardless of which link is being used. When a distinction must be made about the type of link being used, the specific link name is used.
