Chapter 1: Introducing the Mainframe Connect IPS

The three-tier environment

The following figure illustrates the use of the Mainframe Connect IPS components in a three-tier, gateway-enabled environment. IPS components are noted in bold type.

NoteMainframe Client Connect (MCC) is no longer being provided or supported. Consequently, the Client Option can be used only in a two-tier environment. Sybase recommends that you migrate any Client Option applications from a three-tier (gateway-enabled) environment using SNA to a two-tier environment using TCP.
