The AIX DLC Support package contains filesets that install datalink control (DLC) filesets for the communications devices that are installed. A fileset exists for each DLC supported by the Communications Server product. These filesets contain nothing but the prerequisite logic necessary for installing DLC filesets. No executable code is shipped in these filesets.

The DLC filesets are shipped with the AIX DLC Support package (bos.dlc) to ensure their availability if needed. The DLC filesets are also provided by the AIX base operating system. The DLC filesets shipped with this package are at AIX 4.1.5 level. The 4.1.5 filesets do work on 4.2 and 4.3, but don't have all the updates for those levels. To ensure that you are using the latest level DLC filesets, use the filesets shipped with AIX.
