iSeries Handbook
The Corepoint Telephony Base Option for iSeries program is based on the IBM Corepoint
Telephony Services Base Architecture (CSA). CSA provides an API that defines a set of
platform-independent services.
Note: The program ID is available in V4R5 as 5648-C69. When ordering 5648-C69, you
receive the iSeries server component (identical to 5769-CP4), along with the PC-based
product.
For further information, refer to the Corepoint Telephony Base Option for AS/400 Planning,
Installation and Migration Guide, GC34-5347.
IBM Communications Utilities for iSeries 5722-CM1
The Communications Utilities for iSeries comprises the MVS/VM bridge and Remote Job
Entry (RJE) functions. These capabilities provide interchange of mail and files and the
submitting or receiving jobs between connected systems.
The MVS/VM bridge provides support to allow the movement of mail and files to and from a
System/370 host system (VM PROFS and RSCS) using the BSC protocol or SNA over SDLC
lines, over an X.25 network, or over an IBM Token-Ring Network. The SDLC and X.25 lines
can connect through an X.21 interface. This support also includes direct connection to
VM/RSCS or MVS using JES2 or JES3. Other operating systems can be reached indirectly
through the RSCS or JES network including DOS/VSE using VSE/POWER. Other iSeries,
System/36s, and System/38s that are connected to an iSeries MVS/VM bridge system using
SNADS can also exchange mail and files with systems in the network.
The MVS/VM bridge capability enables the iSeries server to exchange RSCS files, spooled
output, and messages generated using SNA Distribution Services (SNADS) on the iSeries
server, the System/36, or the System/38 with VM systems. Other files, such as job streams,
generated on an iSeries server, a System/36, or a System/38 can be stored on the VM
system and forwarded to the appropriate iSeries, System/36, or System/38 using the
MVS/VM bridge.
