No. We presently do not have a SNMP co-agent for RFC1512 that runs
over our DEFEA or DEFPA NDIS 3 drivers. This is something we plan on
providing, at some point. Off the subject, we do provide an SNMP
co-agent (both RFC1512 and DEC Extended MIB) for the NetWare server
platform.

Not exactly. You won't be able to use a MIB browser (such as is
supplied with Spectrum) to access the data, but you will be able to
get/set RFC1512 information locally using NICWORKS/FDDI.
If you have further questions on this, please let me know.

Larry
