I was originally letting it generate them but realized that could result in tunnel interface numbers changing around which might break something like performance data with snmp so now it's all statically assigned in the CSV data file.
I've started at 50 and go up from there because I figure that's probably a safe range to use.
This can be changed very easily, however.

In addition to have the configs emailed to you you can also fetch them
via tftp from me.
I'll have the email that's sent have a URI for the location you can
fetch your config snippet from.
You can load these directly from your cisco to have it update the tunnels.

Send me the following information (offline):
Your physical location: country at a minimum - this determines which Multinet router you will connect to
External dynamic - DNS name - this will be resolved every x number of minutes to maintain your link
DECnet area - this is used for naming the Multinet circuits
email address to send updates to (both external and internal (<node>::<username>))

Subject: Re: [HECnet] Joining HECNET
Now as things settled I am back with my SimH/Vax (running 24/7 on a
raspberry pi) and my Alpha (an Alphastation 255 I newly aquired).
There are Decstations in Storage too (these odd MIPS Boxes) - maybe
one of these could be connected too - provided there's DECNet Support
in Ultrix.
There is. You just need to find the distribution.
Nice. I should have approbiate media and will give this a try.
You need to figure out who to connect to first, then we can fix the node
numbers. I have a terribly short memory. Who was it that could handle
Multinet with dynamic IP? Steve?
Care to help out? Also, Wolfgang, do you want to set a level 1 router, or do
you just epxect all your machines to be endnodes, and have each on have
their own link?
My memory isn't best too, so don't worry ;)
Primary intention is to bring up at least the simulated VAX 24/7. The
other machines would run on occasional basis. As my DecNET experience
is way too rusty best practice would be operating the simulated VAX as
Endnode for start.
It'd be greatly appreciated if Steve could help out with the Dynamic IP....

Wolfgang

Can I make KRON load them? ;)
