Getting SNMP to the brouter should be easy, need to work out how to do the same for GRE. Will get back to you once I have worked it out.

If you can do that you'll be golden. GRE doesn't run over a port, it's a Layer 4 (transport) protocol. SNMP is 161. The email address is just where you want notification emails sent so your normal email is probably appropriate. The emails that are sent can also be copy and pasted into the router in the event that SNMP doesn't work. -brian On Sep 29, 2013, at 4:00, "Robert Jarratt" <robert.jarratt at ntlworld.com> wrote: I was going to have a go at this today, but thinking about it I am not sure this can work at DEC Legacy or even here at home because it would always be behind NAT. Can we make this work with NAT? What ports would you need? Nevertheless I have it configured with DECnet and I have entered the two SNMP commands below (I used the public community name, not sure if that is right because I know very little about SNMP). The information you wanted was: Your external IP Addres: 86.4.69.74 Your external FQDN: jarratt.dyndns.org Is this a dynamic IP: yes The DECnet area at this location: 5 The source interface on your router: Ethernet0 The email address you want updates sent to: rob at jarratt.me.uk (not sure if this is what you mean, this goes to my regular email address, are we talking about some email capability in the router?) The snmp community from the above directions: public I hope that is the information you need.

The machine running the config tool is down right now so I'm in no hurry. :) -brian On Mon, Sep 23, 2013 at 11:37:23PM +0100, Jarratt RMA wrote: > I have no idea how to set up GRE, but I believe the DECbrouter I have can > do it, does anyone have any pointers on how to set it up?
