  12. TITLE     IBM ANYNET SNA OVER TCP/IP GATEWAY FOR OS/2                           
  13. ABSTRACT         The AnyNet (TM) SNA over TCP/IP Gateway for OS/2 (R),          
  14.           Version 1.0 connects IP networks and SNA networks to enable           
  15.           communication between SNA applications.                               
  16.                  This gateway delivers a set of four gateway sizes, providing   
  17.           you with optimal cost-effective choices.  The low-priced entry size   
  18.           meets the needs of small, remote offices by providing support for 20  
  19.           sessions.  The 100, 250, and 500 session sizes support small, medium  
  20.           and large networks.  The size of the AnyNet SNA over TCP/IP Gateway   
  21.           can be changed by simply using a password -- no reinstall or          
  22.           reconfigure is required, except to enter the new password.            
  23.                  In conjunction with the AnyNet products -- that run on OS/2,   
  24.           MVS/ESA (TM), AIX (R), and AS/400 (R) -- networks can run SNA         
  25.           applications in IP attached workstations or hosts and communicate     
  26.           seamlessly into native SNA environments.  The following shows a

  78.                  Both dependent LU (for example, LU0, LU1, LU2, LU3) and

  105.                  The AnyNet SNA over TCP/IP Gateway is available in four sizes. 
  106.           When initially ordering the gateway, you select a capacity level of   
  107.           20, 100, 250, or 500 concurrent sessions.  A password is provided to  
  108.           unlock that capacity.  If your network grows, select the IBM AnyNet   
  109.           SNA over TCP/IP Gateway for OS/2 Size Increase Kit which meets your   
  110.           connectivity needs.  The kit contains a password that increases the   
  111.           capacity of your existing gateway.  Users need only to rerun the      
  112.           configuration menu where prompts will guide you to enter the new      
  113.           password.  That's all!  There is no need for reinstallation or        
  114.           reconfiguration of your existing gateway.                             
  115.           SOLUTION SIZING AND GROWTH                                            
  116.           The AnyNet SNA over TCP/IP Gateway provides multiple sizes to allow

  123.           the most cost effective solutions tailored to your network design.    
  124.           The AnyNet Gateway also allows you to increase the gateway size with

  127.           After publishing the GUIDE TO MPTN ARCHITECTURE last December, X/Open 
  128.           has now published the first results of its technical work on MPTN:

  131.           85912 043 1 respectfully).  This is our response to a high priority   
  132.           requirement placed on us by our User Council.  We hope these          
  133.           specifications will lead to multiple implementations, bringing to     
  134.           market the benefits of a scheme promising to preserve the enormous    
  135.           investment in current distributed applications, while adding          
  136.           flexibility in choice of the underlying transport service.

  143.           NEW APPLICATIONS ENABLEMENT                                           
  144.           Significant business solutions are provided by enabling SNA           
  145.           applications, such as CICS (TM), to communicate across an IP network  
  146.           whether on a LAN, nationwide or worldwide.                            
  147.           FUTURE GROWTH                                                         
  148.           AnyNet allows you to grow networked applications independent of the   
  149.           underlying transport protocol.                                        
  150.           IMPROVED PROGRAMMER PRODUCTIVITY                                      
  151.           Programmers can now write applications to their preferred interface   
  152.           and the applications can run over different network protocols.  No    
  153.           application rewrite is required for a new network environment.  This  
  154.           means less to learn, less to change, and less to maintain in SNA and  
  155.           IP networks.                                                          
  156.           BROAD APPLICATION ACCESS                                              
  157.           End users with SNA applications can now access and communicate with   
  158.           other SNA applications worldwide across IP networks.  Less effort and 
  159.           cost is required by system programmers, network planners, and         
  160.           administrators to achieve this connectivity.                          
  161.           REDUCED NETWORK COMPLEXITY                                            
  162.           Since the AnyNet product family can help customers reduce the number  
  163.           of physical and logical networks required, the resultant network is   
  164.           simpler and less costly to maintain.  AnyNet is also configuration,   
  165.           installation, and distribution (CID) and national language support    
  166.           (NLS) enabled for simplified product management and worldwide         
  167.           support.                                                              
  168.           ANYNET FAMILY OF PRODUCTS AWARDS                                      
  169.           IBM's AnyNet products have won two awards over the past year!         
  170.                  DATA COMMUNICATIONS magazine chose AnyNet/2 as a, "Hot         
  171.           Product" for 1994.  Each year, DATA COMMUNICATIONS selects 30-40,     
  172.           "Hot Products" which are technically innovative and address specific  
  173.           needs in complex networks.

  184.           PRODUCT POSITIONING                                                   
  185.                  The IBM AnyNet SNA over TCP/IP Gateway for OS/2 connects SNA   
  186.           networks and IP networks to enable communication between SNA          
  187.           applications.  AnyNet provides customer migration and flexibility     
  188.           advantages.  AnyNet provides customers with an easy, quick, and low   
  189.           cost solution for continued use of existing protocol dependent        
  190.           applications when changing the underlying transport network.          
  191.                  In addition, AnyNet provides for adding applications to        
  192.           non-native protocol environments quickly and inexpensively.           
  193.           Customers with a need to connect SNA applications across IP networks  
  194.           should use AnyNet.                                                    
  195.                  AnyNet software solutions do not require any additional        
  196.           hardware beyond the gateway itself.  AnyNet is distinct from other    
  197.           middleware solutions in that no application changes are required nor  
  198.           are new APIs introduced.
