description This paper discusses SNA/LEN, a possible extension of Systems Network Architecture intended to allow peer, dynamic, and easy to use networking functions for a variety of node sizes down to and including the new generation of personal computers. After reviewing the special requirements posed by small systems and the need for including them as equal partners in networks, the LEN architecture is described. This is done by following a sequence of steps that begin when a logical resource at some node that may not yet be part of the connectivity of an existing network requests a session with a remote logical resource of unknown location. After connectivity with the preexisiting network is established, directory services locates the remote object, route selection services determines the preferred path, a session is activated, and deadlock-free flow control assures a useful flow of data. Preliminary quantitative results from an LEN prototype are presented.
