This is a virtual telecommunications access method (VTAM) connected to a locally-attached Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) node via Channel Interface Processor (CIP) Systems Network Architecture (SNA) using SDLC Logical Link Control (SDLLC).

This is a VTAM connected to a remotely-attached SDLC node via CIP SNA using SDLLC.

Ethernet-Attached SNA Nodes

This is a VTAM connected to an SNA node attached to an Ethernet LAN.

Token Ring-Attached SNA Nodes

This is a VTAM connected to an SNA node attached to a local Token Ring LAN.

This is a VTAM connected to an SNA node attached to a remote Token Ring LAN.

VTAM to SNA Node Attached to an X.25 Network

This is a VTAM connected to a locally-attached Qualified Logical Link Control (QLLC) node.

This is a VTAM connected to a remotely-attached QLLC node.
