DECnet/OSI V6.2 is old and not supported anymore. It's probably
better to use V6.3 + ECO 6 (and install the DECDNSECO02070 fix-
kit, as well).

This software/product does not exist anymore as a seperate product,
but is included in the DECnet/SNA Gateway (-ST/-CT) or Domain Gateway
software kit.

You can check this in the Software Rollout Schedule's, see a
pointer in entry 7026.1.

APPC/LU6.2 V2.3  works on VMS V6.1 up and until V7.0
3270 TE V1.6     the same


>    VAX 3271 protocol emulator         VAX 3271 V2.5-06 

This is not a DECnet/SNA product, but instead a TE used via the
Bisync-protocol. As far as I know, this product was retired a long
time ago.
