CICS and IPIC Tutorial

IP interconnectivity (IPIC) is a recently introduced type of CICS
intercommunication link that enables you to implement CICS-to-CICS
connections using TCP/IP.  IPIC supports the full capabilities of IP
networking including IPv4, IPv6, SSL, and TLS.    Once the IPIC
connections are configured, CICS regions may transmit DPL, transaction
routing, and function shipping requests over the IP network just as has
been done over MRO and ISC connections.  In addition, the CICS Transaction
Gateway can utilize IPIC to provide enhance capabilities such as support
for channels and containers and Identity Propagation.  This tutorial will
describe how IPIC connectivity works, how to create IPIC connections
between CICS regions, and how to migrate existing MRO and ISC connections
to IPIC.
