> If you omit HOSTSA you'll get SACONNS=NO. This point doesn't jump out at me from Table 70, "Node type functional summary" and yet I believe you must be right - and I'll have to revise my just created diagrams. In principle the default value for the SACONNS start option is YES - just take a look as the description! - but, in order to reproduce the rules as they applied before the SACONNS start option appeared, not specifying HOSTSA and specifying NODETYPE *must* eliminate external subarea, in other words, SACONNS=NO must be assumed. Time for yet another "reader's comment form"!
Just for completeness - as the original question was about a VTAM running EE we know that NODETYPE was coded. What I said would not be true on a non-APPN VTAM without NODETYPE. Then, as Chris's table showed, you'd have a subarea-only VTAN with subarea number 1.
