OVERVIEW   HIGHLIGHTS
   o   X Window System Server and NFS Server Support
   o   Internet Protocol (IP) over X.25 Support
   o   Network Device Interface Specification (NDIS) Support
   o   Simple Network Management Protocol Enhancements
   o   VT220 Emulation and Sendmail MX Record Support
   DESCRIPTION
   USER PRODUCTIVITY
   TCP/IP Version 1.2 has been designed to improve the productivity of
   the end user.  There has been significant performance improvements in
   the entire product.  New functions have been added to TCP/IP
   Version 1.2 for OS/2, with the goal of end user productivity in mind.
   These include the following:
   o   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.
   o   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.
   o   File Transfer Protocol -- Presentation Manager (TM) (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.
   o   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.
   o   Dynamic Link Library Support
              TCP/IP Version 1.2 for OS/2 supports the dynamic linking
       feature of the OS/2 operating system.
    (TM) Trademark of International Business Machines Corporation.
          Many functions have been enhanced to provide greater end user
   productivity.  A list of these follows:
   o   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.
   o   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.
   o   TELNET Server has improved performance.
   o   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.
   o   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.
   o   File Transfer Protocol (FTP) will now support HPFS (High
       Performance File System).  This allows users to transfer files
       that have file names supported in HPFS.
   o   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.
   o   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.
   o   LPR/LPD -- remote printer support
   o   Remote Procedure Call
   o   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:
   o   Facilities for keyboard remapping in PMANT and TN3270
   o   Security enhancements to File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
   o   Security and Interoperability enhancements to NFS Client
   o   Remote Printer support in LPR/LPD
   o   Support of a TELNET LINEMODE client
   o   Support of Boot Protocol (BOOTP).
          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 Version 1.2 for OS/2 by
   requiring less disk space and memory.
   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:
   o   Support for OS/2 Standard Edition
   o   Support for adapters that implement a Network Device Interface
       Specification (NDIS) Media Access Control (MAC) driver.
   o   Support of a Network File Server (NFS) Server
   o   Support of the X Window System Server
   o   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

   SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT
   SystemView (TM) 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 Version 1.2 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 Version 1.2 is not SystemView conformant, it
   provides key features that apply to the SystemView application
   dimension discipline.  These features are as follows:
   o   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.
   o   Performance Management
              Key performance related statistical variables can be
       obtained using SNMP.
   o   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.
          TCP/IP provides the following system management enhancements
   in the Version 1.2 for OS/2 product:
   o   Support of the new Management Information Base MIB II
   o   Ability to display SNMP TRAPs
   o   Ability to obtain the values of individual MIB variables
   o   Ability to verify the ability to reach a group of hosts.

   PRODUCT POSITIONING
   IBM's networking vision is to provide customers the ability to
   collect, manage, access and integrate information among departments,
   locations and companies worldwide and do it simply and easily.
          IBM believes that the customer's environment will be composed
   of OSI, TCP/IP, SNA and other networks coexisting in a heterogeneous
   state.
          IBM must support the customer's freedom of choice, and
   flexibility required to create a network from diverse technologies,
   with total interoperability and comprehensive end-to-end management
   support and functions.
          In today's environment, TCP/IP is the most widely accepted
   product for support of multivendor networks.  TCP/IP Version 1.2 for
   OS/2 interoperates with IBM's TCP/IP products for VM, MVS, DOS,
   AS/400, System/88 and the AIX family and products that provide
   equivalent protocol support.
