IBM Communications Server for AIX, V6 New Features and Implementation Scenarios
by Byron Braswell, HyunKeun Park, Ascension Sanchez
Overview
This new release of Communications Server for AIX includes many
new features and functions that make CS/AIX a more important player
in bridging the e-business gap between the Internet and critical
legacy data applications. Support for secure TN3270 communications
with SSL and load balancing with SLP are critical in insuring
secure and consistent communications with the host. Support for
high performance routing, branch network configurations, and
channel attachment are significant in that they allow placement of
Communications Server anywhere it benefits performance most in the
customer's IP or SNA network.
This book covers the new features and functions in Communications
Server for AIX, Version 6. Each feature is explained.
Implementation steps are listed for most features, and sample
scenarios are reviewed to give a better understanding of where a
feature or function may fit in your networking environment.
Guidelines given in this IBM Redbooks publication are general.
Several scenarios are included, and although actual customer
networks most likely will differ, these scenarios serve as examples
for customers to develop proper plans to expand or migrate their
networks to meet future business requirements. Customers are
invited to engage IBM in the planning process.
