Ok, so I should be getting to my plans soon enough here and had some questions
about how I should set this up.
I'm going to install SIMH on the machine in colo (100mbit connection here in
the US, so might be useful as a "hub") as well as a small handful of boxes
here at home.
Sounds good.
Should I just use one area? What's the best way to set that up?
Areas in DECnet are not really meant to be associated with physical location, but rather
with organizational. So keep it within one area.
For physically different locations, you might want to use level 1 routers, though. But as
the internet nowadays is so fast, using just a bridge, and pretend that it's all one
ethernet segment also works just fine.
