Hi Rob,
Yes. My VAX, BENDER, is a VMS system running DECnet-Plus (or whatever it is called this week :-). It was configured as an L1 router for a little bit after a typo (it was late when I ran the config). Once I realised my boo-boo I reconfigured to L2 :-).
Regards, Tim.

Are you running some Phase V nodes? I saw some packets a couple of days ago from area 12 with a routing specification version number higher than that used by Phase IV.

Ah welcome to the fun :)
I'll run a node database update later once they're added.
I see we have 21 areas active in recent days. Is this the most ever?
I've never seen more than 20 in the time I've been here.

A multinet tunnel would need to terminate on a VMS box that is an area
router, yes.
Can't see any reason why a normal level 1 router wouldn't work as well, as long as both nodes are in the same area.

There are several of us here who have cisco's doing this, so let us know what your IP is going to be and we can setup some tunnels.
Thank you for the offer. I'll send out a request once I've got the hardware working.

No problem, config is easy. Let me know when you are ready and I'll give you a hand.

I'm not considering using Multinet, so it sounds like I can use the Cisco as the area router. Time for some experimenting.
