New and Changed Information
This edition has been revised to include the following changes made to SNAX products
in the D40.00 release and G02.00:
•
Support for V.25 bis modems that can automatically dial or receive calls across the
general switched telephone network
•
Discontinuance of SNAXLink support
This edition also has been revised to include the following changes made to SNAX
products in the G02.00 release (for Himalaya S-series servers, which use ServerNet
architecture):
•
Communication with physical lines through the ServerNet wide area network
(SWAN) concentrator (rather than communication controllers)
•
Use of WAN subsystem profiles for initial configuration (rather than system
generation macros)
•
Use of the SCF interface to the WAN subsystem for permanent reconfiguration
(rather than Dynamic System Configuration commands)
•
Use of an SCF interface to EnvoyACP/XF for temporary reconfiguration (rather than
CMI)
SNAX/CDF is not carried forward on G-series releases. Token-Ring connections are not
supported at the G02.00 release but may be supported in later G-series releases.
Appendix B (new) lists the main SNAX product changes between the D40.00 and
G02.00 releases.
Technical changes are indicated by vertical bars to the right of the text.
