DT-6X60 User's Manual - Platform (Build 2.0)
11 APPENDIX E: B RIEF D ESCRIPTIONS OF
DT-6XXX A PPLICATIONS
11.1 IP-BHI
The IP-BHI (BiSync Host Interface) application allows a legacy BiSync host to connect to an IP
network (using a DT-4000). Each instance of the application emulates one BiSync line with up to
32 cluster controllers and up to 32 logical devices per cluster controller. A DT-6X60 can support up
to 30 or 48 instances of the IP-BHI application; so one DT-6X60 embedded network processor can
support 30 or 48 host lines.
This application can also be used to replace the functionality of SYNC8 module used in BHIM
mode in a BNS/Datakit
®
network.
11.2 TN3270
The TN3270 application will allow a PC that is connected to an IP network and has a 3270 client
application installed within it to access a BiSync host via either the BNS/Datakit Sync8 module in
BHIM mode or the IP-BHI application described above.
This application can also be used to replace the functionality of the Datakit TN3270 DKAP
application.
11.3 IP-B2APRT
The BiSync to ASCII printer application, IP-B2APRT, allows a BiSync host to print to an ASCII
printer located on an IP network. This application is usually used in conjunction with the TN3270,
IP-BHI, and IP-SPOOL applications.
This application can also be used to replace the functionality of the Datakit A2B DKAP application.
11.4 IP-E2A
The IP-E2A application replaces the legacy E2A module function in a Datakit network. It provides
the digital bridge function, thus eliminating the need for the high maintenance and difficult-to-fix
digital networks used prevalently with E-telemetry. It can be used in an IP network to provide a
gateway for E2 and E2A network elements to OS host applications.
11.5 IP-FANOUT
The IP-FANOUT application allows up to 504 IP-GATES (either standalone or those which are an
embedded function of a DT-4000) to communicate over a WAN network.
11.6 IP-LTCN
The IP-LTCN application is a migration solution for all variants of the Loop Test Communications
Environments. It is used in conjunction with an Internet Protocol conversion of the Tollgrade
