The Base is a part of each SNA Server component, such as a local 2.1 node or an SNALink, that provides the operating environment for that component. It passes messages between components and provides functions common to all components, such as diagnostic tracing.
This document is concerned with the link Base, which is the type of Base used by SNA Server SNALinks. The Base has entry points for initialization, sending messages, receiving messages, and termination.
