Enterprise Extender (HPR over IP)

Enterprise Extender allows you to extend the reach of SNA applications and data to include IP networks and IP-attached clients with similar levels of reliability, scalability, and control as SNA users. Enterprise Extender integration uses standard IP technology and does not require new hardware or software in the IP backbone.

Enterprise Extender is a simple set of extensions to the existing HPR technology, and provides the following:

Nondisruptive backup from desktop to host
SNA transport over native IP network
End-to-end failure protection
End-to-end data prioritization
Scalable and cost-effective connectivity
