Does the following animal exist: a 4/16 Mbit SRT Token Ring Bridge that can transfer data across an existing 56 Kbit multipoint line servicing SNA (SDLC) IBM 3270 Cluster Controllers. Novell Netware286 is running on one LAN, Novell Netware386 on the other. I would assume the bridge would have to employ a VTAM negotiated session while VTAM was active, and would have to negotiate a session in VTAM's absence. Personally, I have my reservations about mixing transaction processing and batch processing on the same medium, but I really have no good idea as to the extent of the traffic or sizes of the files being exchanged between rings. If the traffic is light or the file sizes are generally small, than the impact should be minimal. Anyway, thanks in advance. -- Dan Mercer Reply-To: mercer@npdiss1.StPaul.NCR.COM (Dan Mercer) "MAN - the only one word oxymoron in the English Language"
