ERIC@ETSU.BITNET (Eric Job) (04/26/88)
Our site has been an older bisync environment (IBM 4341, 3705, local terminal controllers), but our university is looking towards an upgrade sometime in the near future. In anticipation of upgrading into an SNA (VTAM, NCP, etc.) environment, I need to begin learning about it. Any suggestions of what texts, videos and courses that best taught you SNA would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your reply.

Published by Pergamon Infotech Lmt., ISBN 0 08 028583 X. It is available from Computer Literacy. A good overview of SNA, except that it is too old to cover some of the more recent things such as LU 6.2. But still highly recommended. A new one that just came out is Systems Network Architecture: a tutorial by Anton Meijer. Published by Pitman Publishing in Grate Britin and John Wiley & Sons, Inc in the U.S.A. ISBN 0-470-21015-X. I havn't read it but it does cover the newer features of SNA such as LU 6.2 and some of the related architechtures such as SNADS and DIA. We (Communications Solutions, Inc.) also offer a series of seminars and reports covering a varity of SNA related topics. If you want more information, email me your paper mail address or call us at (408) 559-1118 and ask for Information Services. Jerry Whitnell Been through Hell? Communication Solutions, Inc.
