DLUR(CS 4.2 for AIX) AND SNA Client Access for AIX
ITEM: RS4000003019
**************> QUESTION level 1 --> level 2 SPECIALIST <**************
My user has a APPN network and TCP/IP network.
He would like to use his 3270 application such as cics on es/9000
through tcp/ip network using tn3270 client as follows.
ES/9000 RS/6000 pc/3270
+----+ APPN +------+ TCP/IP network +------+
|cics| N/W |cs 4.2| |tn3270|
|vtam|...............| |......................| |
+----+ +------+ +------+
I think that in this environment we need CS 4.2 DLUR function and
SNA Client Access for AIX for using cics on es/9000 from pc/3270.
Question:
Can dependent LU server of SNA Client Access for AIX work with DLUR
of Communication Server V4.2 for AIX ?
Thank you

Without DLUR in the picture, a tn3270 request coming from
the TCP/IP network would then be converted to an dependent
SNA LU2 flow to the ES/9000. With DLUR, the dependent SNA LU2
flow should then be able to traverse the APPN network courtesy
of DLUR. Unfortunately, the DLUR support in Comm Server 4.2
does not cover applications written to the GSNA API, of which
Client Access is one. This means that Client Access traffic
CANNOT take advantage of the DLUR function. Thus, any
tn3270 traffic must still flow upstream over a traditional
PU2.0/PU2.1 link.
