Re: snads over tcp

["John Earl" <john.earl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sure, you can run ANYNET which allows SNA traffic (including SNADS) to run
over TCP/IP.

Disadvantage?  You are mixing two protocols so you potentially have twice
the debugging and management headaches.  SNA is slower when it runs
encapsulated inside TCP/IP.  But SNADS is also slower than FTP, so if you
are contemplating this option I assume speed is not the driving factor.

Advantages?  If you have to run SNADS in a TCP/IP world, ANYNET will work.
And this support is already built into OS/400.
