ARCHITECTURE OF THE EXPAND SUBSYSTEM
The EXPAND subsystem consists of the EXPAND manager process,
the Network Control Process (NCP), the Network Utility Process
($ZNUP), and one or more line-handler processes. ($ZNUP performs
some statistics collection functions that were formerly performed
by the NCP.) Figure 1-1 illustrates the architecture of the
EXPAND subsystem and the various interfaces to the subsystem.
