71.0. "DECelms questions" by COMICS::WOODWARD (Smile!) Fri Jun 01 1990 12:11

    A few (simple) questions about DECelms ...
    
    1) Can ELMS manage/monitor translan bridges ? If not, is this planned
    and is it possible to give timescales.
    
    2) Will ELMS have a graphics interface ? I have been told of a third
    party product which shows pictorially the FDDI ring, and flags problems
    using colour changes. This seems to be the way all management tools are
    going, so is ELMS following (again timescales).
    
    Thanks for any info,

    DECelms will replace RBMS on vms ONLY to manage (bridge  for ethernet LB100
    LB150 ,LB200 and bridge and  concentrateur for FDDI  ) 
    I think  , there is no plan to support translan with this product  
    Today You can manage translan via wanmanager from vitalink , it use platform
    Ultrix ONLY  
    
    the strategy is the same solution (VMS and ULTRIX) MCC 
    with access module to dec_bridge , with access module to vitalink_bride
