<h1 class="topictitle1">SNA connections to LAN protocols</h1>
<div><p>You can connect your server to a LAN using SNA, and can have multiple
service access points.</p>
<p>The server can connect SNA to a LAN protocol by using service access points
(SAPs). Multiple SAPs allow you to have multiple connections between SNA and
a LAN protocol, thus permitting multiple communication paths between independent
applications.</p>
<p>You or the server specifies the SAPs to use in the line and controller
descriptions. For SNA, the server can automatically create one SAP value (the
default value). You might want to change this value or have additional SAPs
if any of the following conditions apply:</p>
<ul><li>The remote system does not use the default source service access point
(SSAP)</li>
<li>You want parallel station-to-station connections between adapters (This
might be desirable if you link two applications that require different controller
descriptions.)</li>
<li>You want station-to-station connections to the same adapters (You might
want to do this to configure multiple SAPs to test an application on a single
system.)</li>
</ul>
<p>If you plan to change the SAP defaults, see the following
for guidelines and other information:</p>
