I no longer have access to the SNA environment that I was using. I believe 
some of the traces I used were "gateways" that talked via IPX to terminal 
emulators, and talked SNA to the MVS machine. Other traces I had were 
information being sent to printers from the MVS machine. But that was many 
years ago, and many jobs ago....
