One of my colleagues, who currently has no access to the Net, is having
difficulty getting consistent answers from CISCO and IBM sales people to
the following question---perhaps the requisite knowledge is somewhere on
the Net?
(from Mike Symes, Reuters Toronto:)
We are proposing to connect an IBM MVS system to some LAN-based hosts
that run TCP/IP. The LAN's are accessible via an X.25 network, to which
they are connected by means of a CISCO router. Further, we are
considering connecting the MVS machine to the X.25 network by a 37xx
running NPSI.
BMC X.25 X.25 Ethernet
MVS: TCP/IP---37xx: NCP/NPSI---- net ----CISCO router-------other host: TCP/IP
We would like to know the following: will IBM's TCP/IP for MVS use the same
method as the CISCO router for transporting IP datagrams over X.25 virtual
calls? In other words, will the scheme work, or is it necessary to have a
mirror CISCO router at the mainframe end, connected to the mainframe in some
other way?
