<h1 class="topictitle1">SNA exchange identifiers</h1>
<div><p>To establish a connection, your system and the remote device exchange
information that includes the exchange identifiers (XIDs). </p>
<p>Systems Network Architecture (SNA) hosts that use parallel
connections require the XIDs. You define the XIDs in the controller description.
Typically, during the connection process your system conducts an initial poll
with NULL XIDs to determine whether the remote device is active or not. If
the remote device does not respond to the poll within the specified time period,
your system can send another XID to the device. If the remote device responds
to the poll, your system and the remote device exchange XIDs and establish
the link.</p>
<p>The controller description for SNA hosts names the XID value as the local
exchange identifier. The Advanced Program-to-Program Communication (APPC)
controller description names the XID value as the exchange identifier.</p>
