Peter! It's great to see you in this gang. It has been a long time;

what's been going on over there.
I live in Sunnyvale, CA since 1997... -:)
I had heard something about that, but I didn't know you were still there.
So, as long as the tunnels are PTP between routers it will do DECnet
routing, and the metric is cost and hops (look at a ethnernet routing
vector it's indexed with node number and has cost,hop in 16 bits..)
In short, do nothing, set metric to 10 all all over the place and it
will just work.
Oh ok, thank you for the clarification. This is great stuff!

Yes! Also, is there a "master" node list anywhere?
Node list, as in which nodes exist? Not really, the closest is the nodename database on MIM. While noone is required, or forced to tell me, I gently ask that people submit nodenames and numbers to me, and I keep MIM up to date. People can then copy the nodenames from MIM.
I also have the nodename database in a Datatrieve-11 database. It seems there might be some incompatibilities between DTR-11 and DTR-32, so I'm not sure if you can manage access from a VMS box (or anything else). Remote DTR access works fine from another RSX box atleast.
If you need the data in some specific format, I can probably produce that for you.

Is there a traceroute like utility for DECnet to see what my actual path
taken is?
Tops[10/20] has one, but it don't work unless the boxes in the path
implemnets NML, and C boxes acting as routers don't. DECnet don't
really have ICMP, so there is no way of doing this the IP way that I
have figured out, a packet vill just silently die..
Unless someoe has a bright idea? (Netpth do string_matching on
interface names returned by NML...)

It depends on what other external connectivity you have on fa0/0.2,
again, we have link that are L2 bridges that have no metrics...
My suggestion is to keep them all at 10, as that will pick the routed

What I haven't found out is when the IP tunnels were introduced in the IOS=
. It seems to be in IOS 11.2. So it is included in all recent
versions, but the Cisco 2500's have limited flash and RAM
capabilites. Therefore the recent IOS's cannot be used with older
hardware. I suppose the IOS 11.2 should be sufficient for tunneling
DECnet over IP.
GRE 9.21s that was renamed 9.20.. I wanted to talk Chaosnet over IP
and we wanted a generic way of doing foo-over-IP. But, before the GRE
code worked Kirk broke Chaosnet, so there is no official release that
does GRE and Chaosnet .._:)

The 2500s can easily run 12.
I have to check which versions I have on my 2500's. Most probably they have an IP-only version of the IOS. I bought the 2500's cheap from a local broker a few years ago.
There are a handful of versions that have DECnet. It's likely you have ip only though but who knows. Either way, we can get you what you need.

If you and Brian and I set up three tunnels between us, will IOS do
spanning tree between them?

so I'll be quiet, I just wish he changed it to do l2tvp3, don't need
to do the signalling just the encap..) (it don't solve the loop
problem, but now a c router could terminate a Jonny tunnel..)
I'm definitely not boasting about the bridge. :-) It is a hack. But it's much better than the first hack I did for HECnet (which was basically transporting a serial stream point-to-point, and setting up DECnet with a asynch serial port doing DDCMP).
I've not heard of l2tvp3 before. Might be worth checking in to. But the biggest issue really is the looping. And I'm too lazy to implement stp... Well, I might get the inspiration one day, but I'm way more interested in writing stuff for RSX.
DECnet-4 has a link-state routing protocol, it's what Radia did before
IS-IS, it has L1 and L2 routing decided by the area number.
Funny you should mention that, as I always thought IS-IS looked rather a lot like the DECnet routing.
So, as long as the tunnels are PTP between routers it will do DECnet
routing, and the metric is cost and hops (look at a ethnernet routing
vector it's indexed with node number and has cost,hop in 16 bits..)
In short, do nothing, set metric to 10 all all over the place and it
will just work.
What is your IP address? Mine are on the HECnet mailinglinst.
Letting the Cisco partiticpate as routers on DECnet is really the best way to go.

I would be extremely surprised to find that both GRE and DECnet weren't to be found in 11 let alone 12. It's more likely to be a feature set issue.
It's definitely a feature set issue. The last time I did anything
with GRE (before this anyway) was between a 2501 and an AGS+; the former
was running IOS 10 and the latter 11. DECnet support in IOS goes back a
good bit before that, which shouldn't be surprising given the history
(and reason for existence) of Cisco.
I don't think getting GRE support should be an issue, I believe that's
included in all versions, you just have to make sure you get the right
version for DECnet.
Cisco has a feature navigator tool on their website. That can be used to figure it out.
I've not tried that yet. That sounds very handy.

The CCIE at work pointed me to that. Very helpful.

Peter! It's great to see you in this gang. It has been a long time;
I hope you're doing well. Drop me a note sometime and let me know
what's been going on over there.
If you and Brian and I set up three tunnels between us, will IOS do
spanning tree between them?
No, because they aren't switched ports.
It certainly comes into play when bridging, say when bridging across GRE.
DECnet, however, should do the right thing assuming we get our DECnet
costs setup correctly.
Ahh, that makes sense. DECnet over a WAN is a new thing for me. Fun
stuff!
