DOCNUM  A91-809 DATE    910911 REVDATE 920116 TITLE   IBM TCP/IP Version 1.2 for OS/2

Abstract
REVISED JANUARY 16, 1992, TO CORRECT THE UPGRADE PART NUMBER TO 02G6979. VERTICAL BARS IN THE LEFT MARGIN HIGHLIGHT TEXT AFFECTED BY THIS REVISION.

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Version 1.2 for OS/2 provides upgrades to function previously provided in TCP/IP V1.1 and 1.0 for OS/2 and includes support of OS/2 Standard Edition V1.3, Extended Edition 1.3 and OS/2 Version 2.0. Additionally, performance enhancements and new functions further define the IBM business solution for customers in a multivendor environment.

TCP/IP Version 1.2 for OS/2 interoperates with IBM TCP/IP products for VM, MVS, DOS, AS/400, System/88 and the AIX family. To provide flexibility in ordering to customers with different networking needs, new packaging options are offered for TCP/IP V1.2 for OS/2: Base kit, Network File System (NFS), Extended Networking, X Window System, a Programmers' Toolkit and a source kit.

User Productivity
TCP/IP Version 1.2 has been designed to improve the productivity of the end user. As well as significant performance improvements in the entire product, new functions have been added and existing ones enhanced.

New functions include:
 * Network File System (NFS) - server
 * This allows users to share files with each other, much the same way that Lan Server/Requester works. It also has the benefit of allowing a user with a UNIX machine to share files with an OS/2 machine.
 * X Window System - server
 * This is a distributed, window-based graphics system developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. TCP/IP Version 1.2 supports Version 11, Release 4 (X11R4) of the X Window Server function. Support for the X Window System server for OS/2 is an announced IBM Statement of Direction.
 * File Transfer Protocol - Presentation Manager (FTPPM)
 * FTPPM uses standard presentation manager input and output conventions to perform the functions of the FTP client. It also allows simultaneous connections to remote hosts within a single session.
 * Multi-Threaded Libraries
 * TCP/IP Version 1.2 for OS/2 supports the Multi-thread programming feature of the OS/2 operating system in Socket libraries.
 * Dynamic Link Library Support
 * TCP/IP Version 1.2 for OS/2 supports the dynamic linking feature of the OS/2 operating system.

Functions enhanced include:
 * Installation Configuration Automation Tool (ICAT) has been updated to allow configuration of the new features of this program. Also, an indicator displays how far along the installation has progressed.
 * INETD is a super server that allows you to start multiple servers from a single OS/2 session and use the applicable server when needed.
 * TELNET Server has improved performance.
 * TELNET LINEMODE Client Support is enhanced to take advantage of the Extended Networking package that is new to this program; it reduces the amount of network traffic for Extended Networking and SLIP.
 * PMANT - TN3270 has been updated to allow the user to modify the PMANT keyboard definitions and to select from any of the VIO fonts that are available on the display adapter.
 * File Transfer Protocol (FTP) will now support HPFS (High Performance File System). This allows users to transfer files that have file names that are supported in HPFS.
 * FTP API - new procedures give programs the capability to query the working directory on a remote host and query the operating system of the remote host.
 * Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) now supports MIB II (RFC 1213). The SNMP facility can now act as both a managing system and a managed system.
 * LPR/LPD - remote printer support
 * Remote Procedure Call
 * NFS Client

Business Solutions
TCP/IP Version 1.2 for OS/2 provides support for X.25 as a transport mechanism thereby providing wide area networking support as an addition to the overall business solutions customers are seeking in their multivendor enterprises.

Support for the FTP/SMTP in Kanji is provided in passthru mode in this release. Support for the X Window System server Kanji fonts is provided in this release. The default OS/2 Code Page is used to support display of National Language Characters when using VT200 TELNET emulation. The default OS/2 Code Page for National Language Support is also available when using FTP, TFTP and SMTP.

Investment Protection
Many features have been added to TCP/IP Version 1.2 to protect the investment customers have made in the OS/2 workstations they are using in the TCP/IP environment. These include: Also, the addition of such functions as Dynamic Link Library support as well as Multi-Threaded Library support add to the overall investment protection provided by TCP/IP V1.2 for OS/2 by requiring less disk space and memory.
 * Facilities for keyboard remapping in PMANT and TN3270
 * Security enhancements to File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
 * Security and Interoperability enhancements to NFS Client
 * Remote Printer support in LPR/LPD
 * Support of a TELNET LINEMODE client
 * Support of Boot Protocol (BOOTP).

Growth Enablement
Growth for customers using TCP/IP in a multivendor environment has been significantly enhanced by the following additions to TCP/IP Version 1.2 for OS/2:
 * Support for OS/2 Standard Edition
 * Support for adapters that implement a Network Device Interface Specification (NDIS) Media Access Control (MAC) driver.
 * Support of a Network File Server (NFS) Server
 * Support of the X Window System Server
 * Support for OS/2's High Performance File System as part of the FTP Client, FTP server, FTPPM and the FTP Application Programming Interface (FTPAPI)

Additional Product Information
The following chart summarizes the protocols and functions provided by TCP/IP V1.2 for OS/2. The TCP/IP V1.2 for OS/2 User's Guide (SC31-6076) contains a complete description of these protocols and functions. To provide flexibility in ordering for different networking needs, several kits are offered.

Systems Management
IBM SystemView is an enterprise-wide structure for systems management. The term systems management covers a broad range of activities, from the daily operations that manage the resources of an information system to the long range planning that addresses the future information processing needs of an enterprise.

The IBM strategy for systems management consists of the SystemView structure and SystemView conforming products. TCP/IP V1.2 for OS/2 provides support for systems management in the OS/2 environment. The network management protocol support provided by TCP/IP for OS/2 is Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). While TCP/IP V1.2 is not SystemView conformant, it does provide key features that apply to the SystemView application dimension discipline. These features are as follows: TCP/IP provides the following System Management enhancements in the Version 1.2 for OS/2 product:
 * Configuration Management
 * OS/2 TCP/IP provides a Presentation Manager based configuration tool (ICAT) to define operational parameters as well as its interface to the TCP/IP network.
 * Performance Management
 * Key performance related statistical variables can be obtained using SNMP.
 * Problem Management
 * The following problem management facilities are provided:
 * The OS/2 TCP/IP SNMP Client can request the status of network devices from SNMP agents on the network.
 * The OS/2 TCP/IP SNMP Agent TRAP support will notify one (or more) SNMP Clients of significant network events. These TRAPs include cold start and authentication failure.
 * The Telnet Server capability allows remote stations to logon to an OS/2 system, providing remote console capabilities for full screen applications. As a problem determination aid, this allows a remote support group to see what the remote end-user problem is.
 * The Remote Execution capability allows commands to be invoked on a remote system. For example, a network manager could start a trace facility without involving the end user.
 * The File Transfer Protocol allows remote support groups to retrieve a user's system files and after inspection and correction, replace the original.
 * Support of the new Management Information Base MIB II
 * Ability to display SNMP TRAPs
 * Ability to obtain the values of individual MIB variables
 * Ability to verify the reachability of a group of hosts
