At the primary end of the pipe is a Dependent LU Server (DLUS). At the secondary end of the pipe is a Dependent LU Requester (DLUR). DLUS and DLUR support the activation and deactivation of dependent physical units (PUs) and logical units (LUs) in the APPN network. The pipe consists of a pair of LU 6.2 conversations where two APPC applications (DLUR and DLUS) exchange dependent SNA SSCP flows. The flows are encapsulated in a general data stream (GDS) variable and sent in LU 6.2 logical records. The pair of conversations that are used to transmit encapsulated SNA is called the
To configure DLUR, see the page Configuring Dependent LU Requester.
High-performance routing
To support
The HPR function can operate under a base architecture, or can operate under the base architecture plus options. There are performance capabilities available under the Tower RTP option not available with the base. The page, HPR architecture option sets can give you a more thorough explanation of what architecture option is right for you.
HPR architecture option sets
An addition to the base option is HPR
RTP Tower Option: Implementations that support this option can act as an endpoint and are able to transport logical unit (LU) to LU session traffic across HPR networks by using RTP connections. An RTP connection can only be made between two systems that support RTP. That is, there can only be a mix of systems in a given RTP connection’s path through the network (ones that only support the HPR base option and ones that support the HPR tower option). However, there is the stipulation that at least the two end points in the path support the HPR tower option. Otherwise, APPN is used.
Note: An implementation that has the RTP Tower Option also supports the base option. These systems can run as intermediate systems in the path.
Internetwork packet exchange support
If your group or business has an established Novell LAN, you can connect AS/400 into your business using the OS/400 Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX).
