WAN & LAN protocols, April 2005 The i5/OS operating system has long term support and development plans for many key industry WAN and LAN protocols. These include TCP/IP, PPP, Async, Bisync, Ethernet, and APPN via Enterprise Extender. i5/OS has both short-term and mid-term support plans for SDLC, SNA, X.25 and Frame Relay. IBM plans to continue providing i5/OS support for SDLC, SNA, X.25 and Frame Relay in V5R3 and in the release after V5R3. IBM recommends that customers start moving off these protocols prior to IBM's eventual withdrawal of support. i5/OS releases introduced after mid-2007 may not include support for these protocols.

Rob, does this include Anynet as well? (sorry, no time to read the article). While we run most comms over TCP/IP, we still are using some SNA internally between a few systems. To say that it always works is an understatement. cjg Carl J.
