Subject: Option Set 1301 Clarification+

Hello,

A quick question--okay a few easy related questions.

1. I quote APPN Option Set 1301 from the APPN Reference (SC30-3422-03):

	The ability of session connectors in an
	APPN network node to receive nonpaced
	session traffic.  When a node implements
	options set 1301, SCM can accept nonnegoti-
	tiable BINDs and RSP(BIND)s request the
	node to receive nonpaced session traffic.
	Otherwise, the session is deactivated.

Does the nonnegotiable apply to BINDs and RSP(BIND)s or can the
RSP(BIND)s be either negotiable or nonnegotiable RSP(BIND)s?

2. What is the pacing type on a secondary stage with the following
negotiable LU6.2 bind exchange?

	NN1---------NN2--------

                     <----------BIND Rq (bytes 8-13 = don't care)

	<------------BIND Rq (bytes 8-13 = 00 80 85 85 80 00)
	
	------------>BIND Rsp (bytes 8-13 = 00 01 85 85 81 00)

Is it okay for the ISR node NN2 to send a BIND Rq w/ ASPI on and
specify 0 for the primary/secondary send/receive window sizes?  It
seems like the primary receive window size should not be 0 on the BIND
Rq when ASPI is on.  Is this true?

Based on page 11-13 of the above book it would appear the 0 is not a
suitable value for either fixed or adaptive pacing.  I was trying
to decode the first paragraph.
		
Thanks In Advance,
Dario
