Configuring Expand-Over-SNA Lines
Systems Network Architecture (SNA) was developed by IBM for connecting IBM
systems and networks. Expand-over-SNA connections are provided with the HP
SNAX/Advanced Peer Networking (SNAX/APN) product. The Expand-over-SNA
line-handler process uses the NETNAM protocol to access the network access method
(NAM) interface provided by a SNAX/APN line-handler process.
An Expand-over-SNA line-handler process can be configured as a single line, as part
of a multi-line path, or as part of a multi-CPU path. This section explains how to
configure an Expand-over-SNA line-handler process as a single line or as part of a
multi-CPU path. Configuring Expand-over-SNA lines that are part of a multi-line path is
explained in Section 13, Configuring Multi-Line Paths.
