ACI Communication Services provides a range of communication services to enable message exchange on multiple platforms.

ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking (Formerly called ICE)
 

ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking is a data-comms software solution that integrates HP NonStop Server systems into enterprise SNA and APPN networking environments.

For customers with SNA networks, ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking is an implementation of SNA for HP NonStop's HP NonStop servers. ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking enables the HP NonStop system to appear to the host or network as numerous SNA node types, including an APPN node, a Low Entry Networking (LEN) type 2.1 node, a Physical Unit 5 (PU5) and a Secondary PU type 2 (SPU2). Any multiple or combination of node types is supported concurrently.

ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking - HPR/IP (Formerly ICE HPR/IP)
 

High Performance Routing/Internet Protocol, HPR/IP, is the latest standard from IBM for supporting hybrid IP networks and SNA application environments. HPR/IP includes numerous enhancements designed to improve network performance and reliability. ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking HPR/IP is an HP NonStop server implementation of this networking standard.

With ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking HPR/IP, HP NonStop users can take advantage of native IP controllers for high-speed integration with IBM mainframe servers.

ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking - XOT (Formerly ICE XOT)
 

Internet protocol (IP) has become a dominant technology and is widely deployed at many organizations. As a result, maintaining older networks has become expensive and restrictive. To ease the transition to IP, several router vendors have implemented software that supports X.25 over TCP/IP (XOT).

ACI Communication Services for Advanced Networking - XOT enables effective transportation of legacy network protocols over IP by transporting X.25 traffic straight to the HP NonStop server. The solution eliminates the need for external HP NonStop WAN controllers.
