Some brilliant soul has already written an IP stack for RSX. ;) An
SNMP implementation would seem to be a logical thing to do.

But sure, if someone writes a tool that runs under RSX that can extract
information, and preferably do that given a DECnet nodename, then it

Just wanted to say thank you all for responding
to my original request.
Johnny - the part of the MIB most people posted here makes it less of
a black hole; it tells you the areas, hops and cost the Cisco sees
when you are calculating why some area is going through North America
for example. You could ask for a confidential read-only password from
Cisco owners. foobar for mine will continue to work.
