<h4 id="rzajt-cfg400toanynet-po">AnyNet communications for the iSeries system</h4>
|
||
|
<p><span class="bold">AnyNet®</span> is an IBM® implementation of the Multiprotocol Transport
|
||
|
Networking (MPTN) architecture, such as AnyNet/2 and AnyNet/Multiple Virtual
|
||
|
Storage (MVS™). AnyNet capability allows applications and associated services
|
||
|
that use application programming interfaces, such as sockets, intersystem
|
||
|
communications function (ICF), or CPI Communications, the flexibility to use
|
||
|
alternative network protocols, such as Systems Network Architecture (SNA)
|
||
|
or TCP/IP. AnyNet is a family of products that allow applications that are written
|
||
|
for one type of network protocol to run over a different type of network protocol.
|
||
|
For example, without AnyNet, your choice of application programming interface
|
||
|
(API) dictates your choice of network protocol, or your choice of network
|
||
|
protocol dictates your choice of APIs.</p>
|
||
|
<p>AnyNet allows you to mix and match applications with network protocols.
|
||
|
In fact, you can do this without changing your application programs. Your
|
||
|
destination address (such as a remote location) determines the type of network
|
||
|
protocol to use.</p>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>AnyNet/400 Sockets
|
||
|
<p>This support converts TCP/IP addresses to SNA addresses
|
||
|
that are based on tables that are configured by the network administrator.
|
||
|
Programs supported include File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Simple Mail Transfer
|
||
|
Protocol (SMTP), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), PING, and user-written
|
||
|
sockets programs over SNA.</p></li>
|
||
|
<li>AnyNet/400 APPC (advanced program-to-program communications)
|
||
|
<p>This support
|
||
|
allows programs that are written to traditional APPC APIs (such as ICF, CPI-Communications,
|
||
|
and CICS/400®) to be run over non-APPC networks. The application program uses <span class="bold">Location names</span> to specify the source and destination address.
|
||
|
A TCP/IP domain name server converts these location names to IP addresses.
|
||
|
Programs supported include distributed data management (DDM), Distributed Relational
|
||
|
Database Architecture™ (DRDA®), SNA distribution services (SNADS),
|
||
|
display station pass-through, iSeries™ Access for Windows®,
|
||
|
user-written CPI-Communications programs, and user-written ICF programs over
|
||
|
TCP/IP.</p></li></ul>
