Interon SNA

Interon Mainframe Killer SNA enables your Linux applications to exchange data with, and control, legacy SNA equiptment. For instance, you can use your Linux system to control a network of SNA Automated Teller Machines, or to collect data from and send data to SNA retail systems. Interon SNA acts as a Physical Unit Type 5 and Physical Unit Type 4 (PU_T5 and PU_T4) on behalf of your application.

Couple this with Interon's SNMP-to-Legacy Proxy Server and now you can use a standard SNMP Manager to control legacy SNA equipment that has no SNMP support!

All of the details of SNA are handled for you; all you have to do is send and receive data using a simple, socket-based OPEN, CLOSE, READ, and WRITE interface.

Interon Mainframe Killer SNA acts as a server to your application; that is, your application connects to Interon SNA via sockets. And because the interface is sockets-based, you can access Interon SNA from any TCP/IP reachable client system.
