Synopsis

Here is an expert guide to the complex and difficult process of integrating the emerging TCP/IP network protocol into IBM's commercial-based SNA networks, APPN, and IBM's enhancements in high performance routing (HPR).
Extensively illustrated and packed with examples of proven techniques, this book offers you a detailed blueprint for understanding, integrating, and managing subarea SNA, APPN, TCP/IP, and HPR networks. Included is unsurpassed coverage of the comparative features of the four network architectures; methods of integration and migration paths for SNA and APPN/HPR; methods of integrating SNA and TCP/IP; and software products for the SNA and TCP/IP environments.
This book represents one of the first analyses of HPR. This enhancement to APPN provides the error recovery missing from APPN.
You'll also find information on the most current integration technologies, such as RFC 1490 and data link switching (DLSw) - plus techniques for passing one traffic over another, and solid advice on avoiding common integration pitfalls.
Whether you're a network designer, implementer, or manager, this essential reference will give you the skills required to integrate your networks with complete confidence.
