I think the recommendation for nonswitched SDLC was to use VPN support.  I 
think it would be hazardous to imply that, since they don't have a 
recommended course of action for dial up SDLC, that it has any greater 
longevity planned.

Judging by your email domain, I would think that you must be a business 
partner of EDI proportions and could ask for a clarification.  I once had 
them clear up a planning statement for V5R3.  Basically, since V5R3 
dropped the JDK needed for Domino R5, why don't they just come out and say 
that R5 of Domino was dropped on V5R3 and suggest upgrading to Domino R6? 
Of course, I also argued that it could imply increased revenue for IBM 
Global Services in getting people upgraded to Domino R6 prior to when V5R3 
came out.

All of my opinions are solely based on the websites mentioned in this 
thread and not on any potential inside information.

Re: Death of SNA?






The following link says they are dropping SDLC, but in the detailed 
paragraph "WAN protocol (SDLC, X.25, FrameRelay) alternatives" they 
specifically say "non-switched". What about switched (dial-up) SDLC?

http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/support/planning/v5r3suggested_alternatives.html


Seems like if they're still going to offer a synchronous comm card 
(capable of running bisync) they could still let us do switched SDLC. 
Anybody know?

Thanks,
-Marty

dropped.
If you still need SNA, you can still use ANYNET, or your SDLC card (if you 
still have one).
