Step 1 (L) Creating and Configuring Link Services

This section details creating and configuring link services. The maximum number of 802.2 link services that one Host Integration Server 2004 computer can support is:

  • 64 per network adapter (limited by SAP)
  • 255 per SNA server (limited by index from 0x01 to 0xFF)

However, SNA Manager allows only 64 link services per Host Integration Server 2004 computer, no matter how many adapters are installed on the server. To configure the number higher than this, use the utility Linkcfg.exe.

For information on the new IP-DLC Link Service, see IP-DLC Link Service.
