I noticed a while back that incoming CTERM connections to PYFFLE:: (my Waffle BBS clone written in Python, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffle_(BBS_software) ) weren't working.
So I reinstalled DECNET-Linux on the machine and it's all working again.
Happy days.

Johnny,
Can you please add the following node:
42.1023 (A42RTR)
I'm slowly getting things back together and should have my network back online soon.
Thanks!
Ian

Oh, and change 9.15 from TSTBD6. to TSTBD1. I messed up there.
Thanks.

I'm renting a flat there in Feb, spending Jan in Egypt.
Should be able to work remotely 95% of the time, the rest of it I'll fly back to Helsinki.

Just looking at the NSP protocol and doing some packet capture I am
wondering if I can get away with a really basic subset of NSP, just enough
to implement just enough of NICE. It may not work in all circumstances
though. I will have a think, it might be my next project in this area.
Regards
Rob

Actually it looks like I would need to implement various other layers
before I
could even start on NICE, that might be a bit too much. SNMP might be an
option in that case. I don't know much about the details of SNMP, I can
look
it up of course but I guess there would need to be a format for the
routing
and end node data, if I can match what CISCO produces then that would
make it easier, anyone have any info on this?

Rob

Yuck. Seriously, if you depend on manual information, it's going
to be
broken sooner or later.
I'm not at all clear what the problem is, though. I can, from
MIM, tell
which areas are online. And for each area, you can check which nodes
are online in that area. After that, it just becomes a question of
figuring out how the bits are connected.
The problem is the CISCO gear doesnt talk NCP, so we can't do
stuff like
SHOW KNOW CIRC (to get routers to walk) or SHOW ADJ NODES (to get
end
nodes).
If the CISCO guys want on the map, it'll have to be manual for
now....
You'll have the same problem with Rob's DECnet router... And
possibly other equipment, or nodes that don't want to talk NICE.
I have just downloaded the spec and will think about how easy it would
be
to
add this to the router, not that anyone other than me uses it :-(

You guys got off into the woods fast. :)
I will look into non-dec router devices after we get the dec ones nailed
down
with my current code.
I'm thinking possibly SNMP for the cisco devices, yes. Not 100% sure
that'll
work though.
As to your router if you don't want to bother with NICE or SNMP just let
me
know how I remotely query your device. How that happens is up to you so
long as it isn't silly. :)
A simple API that shoots back something like JSON or XML is fine, for
example.
I have been out all day and was thinking along these lines myself. I could
have a TCP or UDP port that sends back a file in some format on receiving a
request. I could implement a pseudo-NCP interface which accepts only exactly
the commands it needs. The only problem I see with this is that you wouldn't
necessarily know the IP address from the DECnet address so it wouldn't be
readily discoverable without some manual configuration of known "other"
routers. The alternative would be for the router to periodically post the
information somewhere, perhaps send the data over UDP or TCP to some
location or other? Any other suggestions welcome.
Regards
Rob
We'll talk later when I get to you. :)
Just to cover something here, as far as non-bridge link I *will not* do
manual stuff. That's just icky.
For the bridge connections I don't see that we have a lot of choice so
we'll
have to think on that when we get it.

Done.
