Configuring IBM Host Connectivity

This section describes the initial phase of configuring 3C359 NIC connectivity to an IBM host computer (mainframe or AS/400) for various Windows environments. This phase involves adding the appropriate network protocol to enable host connectivity.

After adding the network protocol, install the host connectivity applications (such as client access and emulator applications) that are appropriate for your environment.
