RE: Remote Communication - HELP!

["Pytel, Alexei" <pytela1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can try a feature called SNA Passthrough.
It will do exactly what you want:
 - AS/400#2 will have *SNPT device description downstream to AS/400#1.
- AS/400#1 will have *SNPT device description upstream to AS/400#2 and
3270 (LU 2) device description downstream to remote system.

AS/400#2 will establish and control the session, while AS/400#1 will
essentially pass all session traffic unchanged from AS/400#2 down to
remote system.

Instructions for setup and sample configurations can be found in "AS/400
Remote Workstation Guide".

Hope this will help.


                Best regards,

        Here is the current situation:

        AS/400 #1 connected to a SDLC line to remote mainframe
        Batch job on AS/400 #1 one uses 3277 devices to pass data back
and forth with
        mainframe. These 3277 devices hang off of a 3274 ctld that in
turn hangs off the
        SDLC lind.

        What we want:
        AS/400 #2 currently attached to AS/400 #1 over TR LAN.
        Want to move batch job to AS/400 #2, but keep physical
connection to mainframe on
        AS/400 #1.

        No one on AS/400 #1 will need to access the mainframe after the
application is
        moved.
