LU6.2 CPI-C Connections

Cooperative flows from a client application can pass through a Comm. Bridge and then on to a CICS or IMS target server environment using an SNA Independent LU (ILU). Each cooperative flow results in an LU6.2 conversation being established between the Comm. Bridge and the target server environment (CICS or IMS). Each Common Format Buffer (CFB) is transmitted over its own LU6.2 conversation. The conversation is completed when a corresponding response is returned to the Comm. Bridge.

The following diagram illustrates a Distributed Processing application in an LU6.2 communications environment.
