Controller-Resident Programs
The 3745 runs under control of one of the following:
Advanced Communications Function for Network Control Program (NCP) to
support SNA devices.
Emulation programming (EP) to support non-SNA devices.
Partitioned emulation programming (PEP) extension of NCP to support SNA
and non-SNA devices.
Network Control Program (NCP)
NCP provides major capabilities for SNA networks with synchronous data link
control (SDLC).
Start-stop and binary synchronous terminals and existing networks can be migrated
to a 3745 with the IBM Network Terminal Option (NTO) program. For start-stop
protocols, NCP supports a variety of transmission codes including ASCII, EBCDIC,
EBCD, and BCD. Additionally, it supports a correspondence code for which it pro-
vides translation from and to EBCDIC. For the BSC protocol, this support and
translation operation is performed by the scanners.
NCP includes the token-ring interconnection functions.
NCP coexists with the following IBM licensed programs:
Network Routing Facility (NRF)
Network Terminal Option (NTO)
X.25 NCP Packet Switching Interface (NPSI)
X.25 SNA Interconnection (XI)
X.21 Short Hold Mode/Multiple Port Sharing (X.21 SH/MPS).
Partitioned Emulation Programming Extension
The partitioned emulation programming (PEP) extension of the NCP allows the
Network Control Program and the Emulation Program to coexist in the same 3745.
The PEP lets the NCP operate certain lines in network control mode while oper-
ating others in emulation mode.
The PEP can run only in a channel-attached controller. Channel attachment must
be a byte-multiplexer channel, where one emulated subchannel address is specified
per EP line.
