Hello,
Is TOPS-20's DECnet stack Phase III or IV? I'm trying to throw it in to
the rest of the stuff using a VMS VM.
TOPS-20 V4.1? That would be phase III only. If it even exists...
It exists for sure!
$INFORMATION (ABOUT) VERSION
GSORG TOPS-20 V4.1 KS10, TOPS-20 Monitor 4.1(5471)
TOPS-20 Command processor 5.1(1354)
Program is OPR, version is 4(414)
$INFORMATION (ABOUT) DECNET
Local DECNET node: TOPS20
Accessible DECNET nodes are: TOPS20
Ok. Cool. I seem to remember various issues and stuff with DECnet on a KS and TOPS-20, but
I don't recall details.
I'll find 'em once I bring VMS 4.6 up, most likely. ;)
Thanks. I thought it was Phase III but wasn't sure. Can Phase IV work
with Phase III? There's some rule pertaining to that I forgot...
Yes, it can. The limitations are that phase III nodes can only talk with machines in the
same area, and only machines with node numbers less than 256 (obviously).
I thought it was something like that. Thanks.
Johnny
