774.1SNMP neededVCSESU::MDLYONSMichael D. Lyons - Young enough and dumb enoughFri Nov 06 1992 18:0111
        DECndu doesn't support SNMP and GIGAswitch doesn't support RBMS bridge
    commands, so if you plan on using DECndu on a DECpc, you need to
    identify a network management system available on the DECpc platform
    which can provide SNMP sets to the GIGAswitch MIB.  Otherwise, there is
    no guarantee that a SNMP network management system with the GIGAswitch
    MIB enrolled is present to set the necessary load parameters in the
    GIGAswitch.
    
        It sure would be nice if the firmware upgrade method used the standard
    protocols used in the real world such as SNMP and BOOTP/TFTP instead of
    the DEC only protocols like RBMS and MOP which DECndu uses.
774.2DECndu to support SNMPSCHOOL::POMFRETTue Nov 10 1992 15:4811
Mike,
        Thanks for your input.

        The DECndu development group is in the process of providing
SNMP support for DECndu for several products. The DECndu team and the
GIGAswitch developers are negotiating Gigaswitch support for DECndu.
A version of DECndu for the DECpc is also under development.

        For more information on DECndu contact Marty Hurley or Mike Bouchard.
