MSDN Support WebCast: Network Infrastructure Consolidation With Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004

Tags:
infrastructure management

Overview Microsoft Host Integration Server (HIS) 2004 offers a number of technologies to integrate open Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and IBM Systems Network Architecture (SNA) networks. These technologies include a new Internet Protocol-Data Link Control (IP-DLC) Link Service in support of the industry-popular SNA over IP routing (Enterprise Extender). IP-DLC Link Service lets branch-deployed and centrally deployed HIS computers connect directly to z900 mainframes over high-speed IP networks so that the user may no longer have to remotely administer branch cluster controllers, use expensive Data-Link Switching (DLSW)-capable routers, or maintain costly Front-End Processors (FEPs).
