           Features

           The DEC SNA APPC/LU6.2 product provides an Application programming
           Interface that supports communications between an application on
           an OSF/1 system and a cooperating application on an IBM mainframe
           (through either the DEC SNA Peer Server product or other DEC SNA
           gateways using IBM's LU6.2).

           DEC SNA APPC/LU6.2 Run Time features include:

           o  Support for systems to share realtime data and applications.

           o  Automatic communication between interactive applications and
              remote systems using LU6.2.

           o  Easy operation, which includes a menu-driven operator inter-
              face, with logging and tracing abilities.

           o  Parallel sessions that allow multiple LU6.2 sessions to use the
              same pair of logical units (when communicating through the DEC
              SNA Peer Server product).

           For complete information on the product, refer to the DEC SNA APPC
           /LU6.2 Software Product Description (SPD 62.67.00) for a complete
           description of this product.
