Yep, that exactly what it mean.
Depends on what your companies other leased line applciation are. But
in the long run most likely. AT&T is migrating everything off of the
old SNA network on to their MPLS network, Internet, or Frame Relay.
Unless of course you build your own and just lease the phone circuts
from AT&T.
I would strongly suggest you contact your AT&T Global Network account
rep. asap. If you don't have one, contact your AT&T account rep.

Does this mean what I fear it means? Am I going to lose the ability to
logon to IBMLink via a leased line SNA connection? Are my company's other
leased line applications going to stop working as well?
