how many ibm sna nodes can our peer server and demsa-k or -s connect to
concurrently over the sna?
our customer is looking for concurrent connection to a minimum of 32
different mvs machines.
next, how do we accomodate performance demands to 32 concurrent
physical connections, how do we accomodate 32 physical connections.
I can not find a supported hardware configurations offering 32 or
more physical ports on a single axp.
if we connect via sdlc using the pbxdi or dnses, once we are in the sna
network, can we use the sna to route all lu to the 32 or more mvs
hosts?
most of all , this must be a long term fully supportable solution.
most activity will be 3270 te to mvs.
what are our alternatives
what are the caveats
did i bite off more than i can chew?

| 6995.1 | SNA is a networking protocol too you know! | EDSCLU::GARROD | IBM Interconnect Engineering | Fri Jan 24 1997 09:46 | 4 |
You only need one connection to an SNA network. You'll then be
able to communicate with all SNA hosts in that network.

| 6995.2 | ? 32 concurrent sna host connections? | MKOTS3::LAVERDURE | Ron -What Nodes my Mind On | Fri Jan 24 1997 12:02 | 10 |
Thanks for your reply Dave.
I still feel uncomfortable with how many sna nodes can be concurrently
connected to from a st-gate or domain-gate or peer server.
can we support concurrent connection to 32 or more different sna hosts
from a single st-gate or domain gate or peer server?
Mnay thanks in advance.

Ron,
As Dave points out...
Our gateways are connected into the SNA network. Once connected,
a request to communicate (LU-LU session) can be established between
any one of the gateway's LU's to any LU in the SNA network (that
agree on the LU-LU session protocols).
So, if you have a Domain-CT (1K sessions concurrently), you can
connect to 1000 different LU's on 1000 different hosts.
