3. Line Options
A Line Options panel is displayed for each communication board assigned on the Product
Description panel. During configuration, you must enable the protocol for each line on a
particular board. The board types and the protocols they support are listed below:
• ESX - ESCON/Non-SNA Console
• FET - TCP/IP
Line Options/ESX Panel
The Line Options/ESX panel is used to define the connections to the host CPU(s). One such
panel is defined for each CNTLUNIT macro (to each LPAR that it covers) assigned to this
SCON-3074.

The following options are configurable for the ESX board.
CU Index
This option identifies which of the 48 (00-4F) Control Unit Images supported by the ESX are
being configured for this interface. By default, CU 0 is offered. You can change the interface
number by toggling the value of “0”. You can enable additional images by pressing the <PF4>
key. Each CU image must be dedicated to a single LPAR on the host. The maximum number of
CU definitions supported by the SCON-3074 is determined by the number of ESCON interfaces.
The SCON-3074 comes standard with support for up to 48 CU through each ESX interface.
Protocol
The only supported protocol on the SCON-3074 for the ESX card is Non-SNA with Channel
Path Filtering. For support of SNA, APPN, or IP over the ESCON interface, other Visara
Communication Servers may be used (1174 Product Series). If you leave the selection to
