Figure 4-5 shows an overview of how to integrate a legacy system using
the Legacy Link Interface. To do this, a legacy link process must be
running on the management server; this process is shaded in gray in the
figure. The legacy link process must manage the communication with the
legacy systems, and also communicate with the management server
processes using the functions of the Legacy Link Interface.
