Binary

Synchronous Communication (BSC) remote workstations such as the IBM 2770,
2780, and 3780. Both support SNA single and multiple logical unit remote
workstations such as the IBM 3770, and 3790.

Only POWER supports the IBM 3741 Data Station.

Only JES2 supports the multi-leaving BSC remote workstation such as the IBM
S/360 Model 20 or 3773-2.

Both POWER and JES2 support remote and line passwords for remote
workstation verification at sign-on time. Both support compression and SNA
compaction.

Use the following JES2 initialization statements to define your RJE workstations
and environment:

Global definitions for RJE (and NJE) BSC & SNA buffer sizes, and
number of SNA sessions supported simultaneously

BSC and SNA TP Lines - these can be used for either RJE or NJE.
See Table 18 on page 228 for a comparison of PLINE macros to
JES2 LINE parameters.
