What is your e-mail address?

Continuing the discussion on  SLDC support.

In response your question asking which machines use TEST frames I seem to 
recall System 3x
machines using TEST frames. 

Maybe you can explain how SDLC end to end works in the area of link start 
up. If a host is attached
via a leased line to a DLS router then normal start up consists of the 
host SNRMing the configured
controllers (i.e no XID exchanges take place). Without any proceeding 
SDLC activity what event has
established a circuit?  Do you rely on activity between the CU and the 
(blue or gray?) DLS router to 
establish the circuit  to the host attached DLS router?
