The following figure shows a sample installation configuration that uses Ingres Net, Ingres Bridge, and EDBC to DB2. Ingres Bridge runs on a separate installation on an intermediate platform.

Node A is an Ingres for VMS installation. Node B is an Ingres Bridge installation in a UNIX environment using TCP/IP. Node C is an EDBC to DB2 installation in a z/OS environment using SNA_LU62. Node A and Node C are not directly connected to each other.

Ingres Net is present on Node A and Node C. Users on Node A can access DB2 data on Node C as if the DB2 tables were Ingres tables stored on Node A.
