Re: i5 520 Express and APPN

This discussion caught my eye as we're still using some SNA and are working
towards a 520 upgrade.   Can someone point me to some documentation about
the 10/100/1000 integrated ethernet not supporting SNA?  Thanks...

Larry,

What about the two integrated 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports that are built
into the base of the 520?  Couldn't he use those?

Ken,

  This is correct. None of the GB Ethernet cards support APPC/APPN (i.e.
SNA)

You must either add a 10/100 card or use AnyNet.
