Umair,

If you see most common SNA saps are in multiples of 4, so its 0x04, 0x08,
0x0C
while the responses are 0x05, 0x09, 0x0D etc.
My idea is that if you advertise that you advertise that you cannot reach
SNA path control than you are effectively blocking SNA traffic.

Once again, I am no expert in SNA, but this was my understanding. I have
also read about this elsewhere( prolly in DLSW design guide on CCO), so I
assume that the info is correct.

rgds
Nick

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/111_12.html, several SNA SAPs are
listed. 04 is assigned to IBM SNA Path Control (Individual). But there are
other SNA SAPs in that list. And they don't seem to be multiples of 0x04.
