HP e3000 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 e3000-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 e3000-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 e3000-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.
