"actual DECnet router" meant "actual DECnet router" :-) Until now I
thought
this was something only available in a VMS router node.
VMS not required... MIM is an area router running RSX. :-)
But yeah, "DECnet router" really meant just that.
T10/T20 is routing-IV, if you want to burn kernel memory it can be
area router, but, on the KI10 we had batter use of the memory, like
talking IP....
It would be a fun exercise to turn the bridge into an actual DECnet router.
One day, when I have a lot of time I might even think about trying that.
Feel free. The specifications are out there, so it's definitely not an
impossible task. But I guess it will take some work. It would be very
nice if the bridge did turn into a WAN router...
