All of these facilities are part of OS/400. Other communication facilities are available as
licensed programs, such as Communications Utilities for AS/400 (see “IBM
Communications Utilities for AS/400 V4R4, 5769-CM1” on page 566) and Client Access
Family for AS/400 (see “IBM AS/400 Client Access Family for Windows V4R3, 5769-XW1”
on page 576).
TCP/IP Utilities is included with OS/400 (although not part of OS/400) since V3R1. The
TCP/IP communication protocol function, along with related administration and
configurations, is packaged with OS/400. TCP/IP applications, such as TELNET, SMTP
(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), FTP (File Transfer Protocol), RIP (Routing Information
Protocol), and LPR/LPD (remote print support) remain part of the TCP/IP Utilities along
with the Pascal-based API. These TCP/IP Utilities are automatically shipped to all
customers that order OS/400, although they are not a part of OS/400.
