On the subject of Cisco (and hijacking my own thread)

While I joined the HECnet with a connection via Bob Armstrong using the MultiNet
software, I'm on the lookout for another connection using Cisco for some more
machines.
I'm particularly interested in Cisco networking and I'd like to explore a DECnet
over GRE connection implementation.
This would also have the advantage of keeping routing through the always-on Cisco box and
avoid MultiNet which would not be an option for my PDP-11/24 restoration project.
Looking at Paul's wonder map for hardware Ciscos my options might be a connection
perhaps via Dave or Ian McLaughlin?
I hit "send" before my brain was fully engaged. We can set it up
manually if you're hot to do it before Brian can get to it; let me know.
It's nice to hear of another 11/24. Those are really nice machines;
I have one that was at LSSM for awhile and now it's here in my lab. I
have the CIS option in it, and I have an FPF-11 that I will add the next
time I have the machine open.
