How can ComNet convert communications protocols without actually using physical communications ports?
This is accomplished by Access Method emulation. For example, a ComNet session can be configured to appear as an X25 subdevice. Let’s say we name this subdevice within ComNet as #SU23, and the ComNet process name is $CNET. Your application would therefore open $CNET.#SU23 and it would find that this connection would respond in a compatible manner to X25AM. Note: ComNet allows any combination of connection types to be configured within a ComNet process; whether they use real communications or perform Access Method emulation.
