Hi all,

As far as I know, A LAN Interface under VM can only be used for single
application.  In other words, if you want to run TCP/IP and OSI
concurrently on a LAN (not interface!), you need two LAN interfaces.
Am I correct?

How about MVS and OS/400?

We will have all three types of systems and I would like to clarify this
point before going to add any more LAN interfaces to them.

It seems that IBM guys here don't know that it's possible to have multiple
protocols running on single LAN interfaces of VAX/VMS, Unix and others.

Thanks very much in advance.

Regards,

C.H. Cheng
